Well, I have a Western Digital Velociraptor (10k rpm) sitting on my desk (the original raptor was replaced). I'm debating on what I want to do, I do indeed want to dual boot my PC. I want to start using Linux (I have experience, need to start development). I've used: Redhat, Fedora, Ubuntu, Suse, and Solaris. But I'm not sure what I want to use now. I downloaded Ubuntu x64, partially because it's widely used. But it seems like OpenSuSe has really progressed well since I used it. So, I'm mainly doing MONO development. What do you guys recommend? My Windows experience stretches from Win95 to Win 7, and Win00 to Win08 (server). This would physically be the first time I used a linux distro on my desktop PC though =). Eventually, I want to get a dedicated system for it.

"As for Mono Opensuse will have the best overall support because Novell owns the project last I checked."
Ditto.

That has no meaning. There are Microsoft applications that run better with wine than with Windows, and GNU certainly runs better on linux then on HURD - unless i missed something.
