Suitable Linux distribution for an internet addict

 

Arch Linux is a suggested distro for experienced users since it  authorizes them to bring a customized Linux installation built from the ground up. It does not have a graphical install interface. If its installation is done, there is no post-install account creation or login manager screen. Instead, there is a screen where you can edit the settings that have to be modified to suit the network and system infrastructure. This allows the user to change something in the system from the ground up as compared to a 'user-friendly' distro where one would get a standard set of packages and you have to remove the ones that are not suitabvle for your needs. You may want to try Slackware Linux  since it tends to run faster than other distros.
