Since you already know Fedora, use CentOS. In case you decide later on to move your stuff to dedicated server, centos(rhel) has the best support for the big enterprise servers like Dell PowerEdge. Most of the software can be installed through the yum, just add rpmforge repo: rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-r... Updating the system is really easy, and if you do not know how to setup something, http://howtoforge.org/ http://howtoforge.org/ has most likely info you will need.
