I'm guessing nobody mentioned the *BSDs because they're too busy camparing the installs of WindowsXP and Mandrake... My advice for the Nordics would be to go straight for OpenBSD.. it takes a little longer to get used to and I can honestly say I still havent fully figured it out yet.. but nothing beats the satisfation of running a stable and secure NAT, DNS, FTP, HTTP, IRC Server, Mutt thru Emails and IPv6ing and BNCing my way thru anonymity. Porting most Linux apps is a snap so youre not missing much there either. With an UPTIME that lately seems to rival M$-run Power Plants (oxymoron?)
