It's not a newbie distro by any means, but i am very fond of Arch Linux.
It has 3 versions of python available. Currently,
python24 2.4.6-1
python 2.6.2-1
python3 3.0.1-1
are all very simple to install in Arch. I have 2.6 and 3.0 both installed.
[cro...@veronica ~]$ python --version
Python 2.6.2

Hi Lloyd.
I did not take offense about the comment on Ubuntu. It was an old joke and
it made me smile again. :-)
I've used Debian before, but I have moved to Ubuntu because Debian takes
forever to release a new version. Almost as long as Microsoft. I like Debian

bhaaluu, your comments on Ubuntu are not only offensive, but display
ignorance and arrogance all at the same time.
Ubuntu is based on Debian, but provides a lower entry barrier to Linux for
many.
Not everybody wants to spend much time doing configurations. Many just want
a system that works.

I'm on an eternal quest to find the perfect linux distro
Don't wste your time. The distro doesn't make much difference beyond:
- The basic file system structure and if it sticks to (one of) the standard
then thats not a big issue
- The package manager
