I recommend any of the 4 CD or 1 DVD distros. Mandriva and SUSE are a couple of these. Some people prefer the easy-to-install 1 CD distros. I prefer to get everything at once, so I don't have to look around for more programs, like GIMP (Photoshop clone), etc.

I also recommend you try to decide whether you like the Gnome or the KDE gui. The decision can only be made by trying them both. Gnome has the taskbar at the top like OSX, while KDE has the taskbar on the bottom like Windows.
