In my own experience, Debian's slow development cycle hasn't always amounted to stability - it's no slackware... At work we've been using (current versions of) Ubuntu server for a few years now and it's been stable - through several dist-upgrades even. ;)<br>

I'd go for Ubuntu server install. Easy to maintain - wordpress is even a package.<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br><br><a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WordPress" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WordPress</a><div>

hey folks... got a quick question.<br>
<br>
I have a new computer that I will be using as a web server. From past<br>
experience, I know that the computer does not have any hardware that<br>
presents compatibility issues. So, with this in mind, which system<br>
would y'all recommend for a complete noob looking to set up a<br>
wordpress blog?<br>
<br>
I have been using Ubuntu, as well as Fedora and Debian... but I am not<br>
sure which is best (or rather, easiest) for me to use.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance!<br>
<br>
Jon<br>
