A 9 page comparison of these three distros for anyone in the market to check out something new.
To sum things up, if you like a system that has a good base and aren’t afraid to use the command line to administer or build packages, Fedora is a good choice. If you like to have all the applications you use readily available, nice utilities to administer the system and a single website that you can go to for help, Mandrake is a good choice. If you like a polished, easy to configure system with additional corporate support, Suse is a good choice.
So it looks as though you might be better off installing all 3 distros and using the different features of each when the urge arises. That way you won’t feel bad about leaving anyone out of the mix.
believe it or not of the many linux distributions, mandrake stands out and scores over other versions in speed and smoothness of operation. it magically improves system performance and is much easier to install than other linux distribution, its my personal review for mandrake
