I am currently using CentOS on my laptop. I've never experienced weird bugs, and everything works as expected. Isn't that boring. ;-)

CentOS is usually well supported, there is lots of tested software for it. I couldn't find an Emacs 22 rpm, but I compiled the editor myself and it took me 5 minutes.

I've tried newer distros, but I don't miss any features from them. I feel I use beta software when I try the newer ones.
