   To be honest, you should check out Linux Mint. If you are using it on a   
   desktop, it has the look and feel of Windows, with a Linux core. It is based   
   on Debian/Ubuntu and is extremely good.    
      
   I use Mint for development, and I use Slack15 for servers. Slackware is much   
   more difficult to learn but well worth it.   
      
   Everyone is hung up on Windows to play doors and while that is true, its only   
   a small part of the BBS experience. You can always use Linux, and then use   
   Door game servers for your door games. Truth is with doors, you can do all   
   this work to host them, and then have 1 player. Its just not worth it. Run   
   whatever OS you want, whatever BBS software you want, and use a BBS Door Game   
   server and still offer a better experience. I get the fun is setting it up,   
   but it gets old..
