Osamede >>> I'd agree with epoch1970 -- go for a solid long-term-support version. Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron is good if you're not familiar with Linux yet. It's easy to install, there's a lot of information on the web about using Ubuntu, and the various support forums are friendly and welcoming.
Many here would rightly recommend Debian 5 'Lenny', too. Debian is the foundation on which Ubuntu is built. But you should be prepared to do a bit more learning at the outset (which you might enjoy if you're that sort of person) -- or get a bit more experience first. I'd also agree with epoch1970 that the Debian package management system makes installing applications impressively easy. (I wouldn't do without it!)
