Linux Operating System Distros details:
Linux Elementary OS (generic for anything: gaming, MineCraft, web, etc.)
Elementary OS is the most beautiful Linux OS. The reason is simple!
In order to provide a consistent experience across core apps (such as browser or text editor), there are tons of picked applications, which fit neatly into their own design philosophy - for example Midori instead of Firefox or Chrome.
Elementary OS is obviously inspired by Apple Mac OS X as there is a dock, top panel and applications main buttons are on the left side; theme also looks like Apple Macbook!
It's very neat OS and awesome!

Linux Mint Ubuntu MATE OS (best for laptops – for anything)
Laptops, unlike desktop PCs may not be that mighty when it comes to hardware and there are possibilities of proprietary hardware. This is where Mint Ubuntu MATE does the job the best. Based on Ubuntu, MATE makes it extremely easy to deal with any proprietary hardware and put it into the most effective perspective.
In addition, MATE offers a great balance between performance and resource. The interface of MATE is very user-friendly, no learning curve, and looks extremely polished on laptops.
MATE is managing resources more towards your applications, which also translates into better battery life capacity.

Linux Sugar Labs OS (Fedora SoaS Live) (for children learning)
Sugar is a Fedora-based Linux OS, which is aimed at educators and children. While there are some other Linux OS for kids, Sugar is not just a collection of software for kids, it's actually backed by a whole team of professionals whose goal is to create a platform for education. The project was built via collaboration between: “The One Laptop Per Child”, “Pentagram”, and “Red Hat”.

Linux Tails OS (the most secure / private)
With the situation of privacy becoming more and more an issue, if you want to be fully privately and securely protected from government, hackers and other “big brothers” watching you over, this is for you!
Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) is the best Linux OS you can get to maintain privacy and anonymity. The OS forces all connections to be routed via Tor, while blocking all direct connections. Since the OS is designed to run as a Live CD there are no 'traces' left on the hard drive to “sniff”.
Tails doesn't need any further “advertisement” as according to a Der Spiegel’s article, the NSA itself, declared it a 'major threat' to its mission. Wanna stay secure and anonymous? You got it!

AV Linux (audio and video production)
AV Linux is NOT an actual Linux ‘Distribution’ in the proper sense, mainline Distributions are large organizations which have
full development teams and support infrastructure (ie Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE etc.). AV Linux is a niche project
maintained by a single developer derived from the Debian/GNU Linux “Testing” Distribution which is utilized to
create a independent, focused and specialized platform for Multimedia Content Creation using Linux.
It is made available as a freely shared 32 and 64bit downloadable and installable ISO Image created
from a carefully pre-configured snapshot. AV Linux is essentially a collected and combined showcase
of the phenomenal work of Open-Source and Commercial Audio developers from all over the planet and
celebrates and presents their work organized in an easy-to-use fashion. In addition to a hardware-friendly
efficient XFCE4 Desktop a low-latency Audio environment is provided with a custom ‘RT’ kernel and JACK Audio
Connection Kit. Are you a Linux developer? A full, robust development suite is included for software
developers and the leading Audio/Video/Graphics applications are included or available for installation
from the Debian or included KXStudio software repositories!
If once booted it will require a username and password, try these:
Username: isotester
Password: avl64
Root Password: avl64admin
