I've been reading a Linux newbie guide and I'm trying to decide which distro to 
use. Toward the bottom of this page http://tinyurl.com/a57w9ln there is a chart 
makes reference to dependency problems and in Chapter 8 the "Dependency Hell" 
of RPM based distributions is mentioned. 

How worried should I be about the dependency issue? 

Since I am a complete newbie and not really a computer wiz would I be better 
off getting a store bought distribution which would have a lot of pre-loaded 
applications?

I found this groups link to the Top Ten Distributions. That is a lot of 
information to digest. I know there can be no definitive answer to this 
question and I don't want to start a flame war but I would be interested in 
hearing some advice on which distribution to choose.

My thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer my newbie question.
