I think Debian will find itself kick to the curb over this. Linux community has changed a lot in that "the purist lets keep Linux hard to use for us LEET" are becoming a smaller and smaller minority. Novell, Redhat and Ubuntu are distancing themselves by great strides from the other distros and I think one of those three if not all them will be a viable business model. As far as drivers go, I think Novell or Redhat need to get on the hardware selling wagon like Apple. I think that would resolve a lot of the driver issues. Right now ATI probably doesn't see a good market to spend time on Linux drivers. Just my humble opinion.

I go with whats the easiest distro out there, so far I think PCLinuxOS and SimplyMEPIS are the best as far as that goes.

well... Freespire isn't bad either, but i hate how it tries selling itself to you all the time... :\ (not sure if this has been changed recently or not havent ran it in a month or so) but it was trying to sell its "click and run" feature to me pretty badly and it was rather annoying... other than that it wasn't a terrible OS

Ubuntu

They're expected to be one of the very first versions of Linux to switch to the Firefox clones, since they are themselves are a free copy of something else, Debian Linux.
