Why do you regret choosing Ubuntu?

If it is cheap, they are imitations from China. Bring parts from the US. New parts, yeah, a bundle sometimes. If it is cheap, they are imitations from China. Bring parts from the US.

Since it is localized for Turkish speakers, naturally they would go for that distro versus, per se, Ubuntu. It is their choice, not mind. I am using Ubuntu in my class but I now regret the choice. @Urko: That choice is not mind but Pardus has a great reputation in Turkey.

Don't take me wrong, it's probably a good distro in its own right, but... You are already teaching them Linux, which is already quite marginally used. Choosing a distro that is marginally used already within the Linux world is, I'd say, inflicting an unnecessary amount of pain and suffering on your students for no particular reason. I would say stick to Fedora, CentOS, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian... any of the actual major ones, with a standard package management system that gives them knowledge they can bring with them somewhere else... Ultimately it's your decision, of course. Why would you go for Pardus for educational purposes?
