Re: [Haskell-cafe] Is there a best *nix or BSD distro for Haskell hacking?

I have no idea why you say BSD is bad for the desktop. I've run it as my desktop OS since about 1992. -- Lennart On Apr 22, 2007, at 15:07 , Tom Harper wrote:

I'd go with the one you feel is the best desktop OS. For me that usually counts BSD out (great server, bad desktop). I'd stick with your favourite version of Linux unless you have some special requirements.

I have a spare Windows machine I want to put to better use. I want to turn it into a Haskell hacking box, and was wondering whether any particular *nix or BSD distribution is best (or worst) suited for this. Any thoughts?
