Since I want to make sure that everyone can understand and use the Linux videos, I am downloading several different distributions. So far I have decided to get OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, Mint, and PC-BSD (which is not Linux but I want to show it in an advanced video).
The reasoning behind these choices are as follows. The OpenSUSE is what I used in the classroom because it is one of the easiest to install and it is backed by Novell, so there is money behind the development of it and paid support options that new users can easily find. Ubuntu and Mint are two of the most popular distributions of Linux available today. While PC-BSD is included simply because I have always trusted FreeBSD for my servers and since PC-BSD is based off of it, I naturally like it. Unfortunately it is not as user friendly as the three Linux distros, but it is getting closer.
I should have a Linux install video up within the week (hopefully).
