    Do any of em come with support for aDSL? :)

    EDIT: Was gonna ask best distro but looking back saw that they are prone to start a flame war.

    Red Hat supports ADSL.

    Sorry, but it does.

    I concur :)

    Ah ADSL support in freebsd is very easy to setup, it used to require a kernel recompile but now it's supported by default in versions above 4.4

    You can find the relevant ppp.conf file in the freebsd handbook:

    Hehe. At the risk of starting a flamewar (again ;) ) I can just hear all the Windows users going "oh good - a distro specially for me" Hands up all the RedHat users who get the joke? ;)

    Nobody seems to have mentioned my personal Debian, here, but just to summerise:

    Anything any other distro, that is not based on Debian, can do, Debian can do better.

    And the fact that it is aimed squarely at experts is a good thing.
