Hmm.. this seems tougher than I thought it would be. I'm going to do some
research on this.. Also, I'm running 2 AMD opteron 64bit processors and I'm
seeing that most of the main linux distribs support 64bit. Free would be
best in my situation.
For most linux distributions, is hooking up to networks and the internet
easy?

I agree, stick with some kind of RedHat variant, esp if you aren't a UNIX
pro.
If you haven't purchased hardware, AMD64 currently gives the best bang
for the buck (by far).
Fedora Core is RedHat's free/community/desktop/bleeding_edge distribution.
CentOS is based on RHEL (RedHat Enterprise Linux) which is more
conservative and focuses more on stability, with a longer release
cycle.

It really depends on you, other people swear by ubuntu and debian.
