I have Debian lenny/sid, no problem with installing Apache, MySQL and PHP.

Ok. Thanks for some advise. How about the Ubuntu? is it gud?

Ubuntu is good for plug and play, it has a lot of commercial and open source applications in the repos.

I've never used PHP, MySql, or Apache with it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I love Ubuntu. It's the closest you get to a more friendly Linux environment.

Red Hat Fedora should work also. SUSE would work fine if you like debian. FreeSpire may be good also; I have used Linspire with no problems.

Personally I go with a .deb based system like Debian or Ubuntu. I'm currently using Ubuntu Server for a LAMP/FTP server to easily manage over 1000 unique FTP logins which is working great...although I'm still redesigning the web page the system itself is running great.
