What is the best distro?

i want a GUI that is not too difficult to use, like Slackware, but that has standard commands, unlike RedHat, so that i can learn all the generic commands. any suggestions? what are the pros and cons of each program?

thanks so much,
:newbie:

I would suggest my favourite, Gentoo. There is execellent guides to setting up a beautiful and up-to-date system. I'll recommend KDE or Fluxbox (again my personal favourites).

Please read the rules
