Add the "x" and you'll be all set! Well, you probably knew that the typo would be fun.
Actually Linux "IS" an OS, or Operating System. I think you meant, "What distribution do we recommend?" I guess it depends what you wish to do with Linux. Server, tinkerer, needing a good desktop environment, science, development, or other. Recommendations would vary depending what you wish to do with it. I'd suggest researching some distributions via the web, and trying them out on a virtual machine configuration and see what you like or don't like about them.
