I would suggest trying some of those and then deciding which one you find most comfortable.

The last few
New Linux-Users that I have met, have all sworn that their distribution would be the best for a
New Linux-User. They did not get down to the ultimate
BEST EVER (probably don't know how to use YouTube) but I believe it is a question of
need and
dedication. Me for example..: I always forget immediately the name of the distribution that they talk about; I do not
need to know and
must absolutely water my carrots this afternoon!
Try anything, stick with what you like. And is this really such a big deal...
