+Have you ever wondered how the various Linux distros of the world stack up next to each other? Well PolishLinux.org can help answer that question for you. The site gives [side by side comparisons][1] of nearly every popular distribution. Comparison points range from general features to system boot time to popularity, and obviously some things are more subjective than others. Each section gets a rating from 0 to 9 and in most cases the description for that category elaborates and clarifies the rating in more detail. Unfortunately there's no way to compare more than two distros at a time, but the site does have a [nice questionnaire][3] you can fill out that might also help you make a decision. The form asks a few simple questions about what you're looking for in your system and then makes suggestions based on your preferences. PolishLinux.org also has some great tips for those just starting out with Linux and plenty of links to popular applications, how-to articles and more.
