Linux Advice

[liamcrane]

Hi all

Im looking at playing around with linux for the first time and was just looking for some advice. I think i am going to go with ubuntu to start with, been looking at setting up a Sabnzbd server and feel linux would be a good choice. Just curious to know what version of linux is best to use for this sort of thing? I see there is a desktop and server version of Ubuntu but not to sure which one to go for.

Would someone mind giving me some advice?

Thanks all

Thanks for the advice there, i will try the server version first like you mention as i feel i need to get used to the command line again. What is he main difference between the server and desktop versions? is it just the GUI interface you get?
