I've always wanted to switch to Linux so why not start now. The question is, what really is best for me? Should I experiment with various distributions? Are there varying levels of security with them? And more curiously, what is Poal using?

Mint looked like a great place to dip my toes, but I was thinking either openSUSE or Arch based on one of the guides posted here.

Any and all advice is appreciated!

Mint is a great start. I use ubuntu currently but I've tried a good handful on my laptop. Installing different linux OS systems is generally easy once you do it once or twice.

I've only run into one I didn't like, it was a school's system though so I think it was their "adjustments" to the system that made me hate it.
