I guess technically anything that uses the Linux kernel is Linux.
Heck, my Tivo runs Linux and my PDA and more.
But to answer what I think you're asking: I've played with Red Hat,
Fedora, Suse (and Suse based things like Sun Java Desktop), but along
the way I decided that I would home in on Debian-based distros. I'm
just not smart enough to learn all those other branches.
Having made that decision, it's really a question of which
Debian-based distro has an installer that works for my hardware, and
maybe to a lesser degree, what window managers are incorporated. I
don't see ANY relevance wrt applications.
