Meant to reply to this yesterday and no one brought it up last night
but I thought this was pretty cool.   I tired it with my specific
preferences and one of the recommendations was Mandriva which I've
been using for years.   Once I relaxed some of my criteria, it gave
others.   It also sometimes lists other distros with a note saying why
it failed such as no live CD avail, no prebuilt application library,
etc.

I've forwarded the link to a couple of people who have been curious
about Linux and weren't sure what to try.
