I guess that depends on what you're after really,
personally I like gentoo, and that's mainly because of it's ports collection
and the fact that it's damn fun to tweak.

So, BackTrack is a good live distro, what about installed distro? What
suggestions do you have there?

I'm more than happy with BackTrack, it's got everything I need. It's
still not a replacement for an installed Linux box, but then
again I don't think anything ever will be.
