What's the longest you've stayed on a distribution?
(self.linux)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've really enjoyed mint XFCE. I originally started with cinnamon, then tried XFCE, but then bounced to other light weight distributions (lubuntu, puppy Linux, and general Ubuntu as well) before settling once again with mint XFCE for about a year and a half now. I've thought about trying to go through the process of making a lightweight arch installation but for a simple "it just works" philosophy my current distro does just that in spades.
