Adam and Michael :

In regards to your distribution selection, that you are wanting the
greatest and latest programs.

I have two recommendations for you.

One use Debian Unstable Sid
Two use Debian Stable currently Lenny

Since you both liked Ubuntu but noticed that it had too much 'bloat'

visit http://www.debian.org for more information.

a good repository host is at University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign COSMOS page at
 http://cosmos.cites.uiuc.edu

There you will find repositories for various flavors of fedora,
gentoo, rpmfustion, knoppix, and debian among others.

Three another option could be puppy, dsl, or openSuse
Visit http://www.distrowatch.com/ for more info

Cheers

Justin
