Hi Daniel,

I think that it's very hard for someone to quantify the feeling that
they get when using a different distribution.  What "more user friendly
out of the box" means to someone else may not exactly mean the same to
you.  The only way to know for sure is to test the distribution.  Like
I mentioned, download the 6.06 ISO and play with the LiveCD and give it
a test run.  You may find that you like it or you may discover that you
really prefer your current distro.  Either way, you won't really know
until you've worked with it yourself.  The only statistical authority I
would trust concerning what OS I choose would be myself.
