    its totally upto you... have you looked at www.distrowatch.com they list all the distros! Another factor is are you going to choose one so people around you can help like freddy knows debian and tripwire i think is a fedora core guy. Another thing i noticed is alot of the books and tutorials are based on fedora. Oh and i use debian! :biggrin
