I'm just a lowly newbie-evolving, so I'll go with Xandros. (Xandros 3.0 OCE and Xandros 4.0 Home Edition Premium) But I also like MEPIS. I'll also be trying out several other distros while taking Linux courses to get reasonably proficient with Linux, with which, as far as I'm concerned, any distro will do. Slackware is also enticing.

In recent months I have installed and tried out Fedora Core 6, Suse 10.2, Mandriva One (Download edition) and Ubuntu (Gnome) and Kubuntu (kde). I keep going back to Ubuntu. Maybe it's because it's so easy to get things to work on Ubuntu. It also recognizes all my hardware and peripherals (printer, scanner, camera, etc.) NVidia doesn't seem to pose a challenge and overall my experience with this distro is nothing short of superb. I'm not saying that the others I've tried are inferior - fact is they all have some good features, but for my particular situation, Ubuntu is the berries!
Usually I vote for the distribution which has made the most progress.
But I do not see any distributions standing out this year, so my favorite Slackware gets the vote.
