    linux

    According to the Linux watching web site, DistroWatch, there are more than 400 Linux and BSD distributions currently available and active. Many of these exist with many versions, giving thousands of possible options to choose from.

    so someone please help me sort out the trash here which disto is the one to get that still supported that runs games well?

          I use ubuntu, it runs well. You can run programs to emulate windows and run some games. I have it on an old laptop that I salvaged so I couldn't tell you how well games run but for my purposes its great.

              Here are a few.

              I use Debian and CentOS Linux so I don't loose any of the advanced linux features.

              Debian Linux (Full Linux, Advanced)
              --Ununtu GNOME Slimmed Down version of Debian Linux separated into a server and desktop build.
              --Kubnuntu KDE Slimmed Down version of Debian Linux separated into a server and desktop build.

              Redhat Enterprise (Full Linux, Advanced) Extremly expensive
              CentOS 5.0 Enterprise (Full Linux, Advanced) Free and just like RHEL
