[aida] Linux Recommendations

Just wondering what flavor of Linux anybody out there would recommend to
ensure minimal difficulty getting a standard Swazoo/Aida image to run.  I am
NOT a Linux guy...my experience with Unix flavors goes back to VAX and
Cromemco FORTRAN and Pascal programming...

However, we managed to get pretty standard server with dual processors and
16GB or RAM, but couldn't scrape enough money together for our a version of
Microsoft Server that can handle that much memory...!  (I'm not wishing we
did, it's just that's what our outsourced IT department primarily supports!)

Anyway, just looking for experiences.  I am not planning on doing anything
"fancy" right now except serving up Squeak Aida applications and hopefully
some VMWare appliances to let us run some existing MS Access data
transformation tools we have built.

I just thought I'd ask here because I didn't want to have a hard time with
Aida since my application is coming along so nicely!

Thanks,

Rob
