Linux flavors you might not have heard of

One of the things I love the most about Linux is how insanely customizable it is.  There are several mainstream distributions, each with their own strengths, but if you don’t like any of them you can always roll your own.  If there’s a specialized use for Linux, it’s not surprising to see a distribution dedicated to it.  Here are a few that probably don’t exist, but should:

  • Obuntu – Ubuntu for Obama supporters
  • Dr SuSE – very popular in Europe, and among those who speak in rhymes
  • 50CentOS – an enterprise OS supported by the gangster community
  • Little Debian – a distribution popular among snack cake enthusiasts
  • Fedora Crime – a RedHat-based distribution used by Carmen Sandiego and her henchmen

There are plenty of other distros out there.  If you have your own humorous play on words, feel free to leave it in the comments.
