Oh No!  Do you realize what you've done?  You just overloaded Georga
Techs mail system with countless messages about which Linux distribution
is the one to use.  I can see it now, I'll check my mail and watch my hd
begin to fill.  
Seriously though.  I was a diehard Slackware fan untill I tried RedHat. 
I've not tried Debian or any of the others but I must say I've had few
problems with the RedHat distributions that I could attribute soley to
RedHat. 
You might want to pick up a copy of the Infomagic cd.  I belive it has
either three or four distributions on it and its only about 20$.  I
think you can get it at Micro Center or you can hit the InfoMagic web
sight http://www.InfoMagic.com

Good Luck.
