Best Version of Linux for me


What is the best version of Linux that has all of the following things pre-installed:
PHP web development with apache and mysql
OpenOffice.org
Picture Editing software
Movie Editing software
Music Editing software
KDE

The main thing that I need is a good web developing piece of software preinstalled that can do PHP well.

Thanks

preinstalled?? installing an rpm is hardly rocket surgery... that's a pretty bizzare requirement...

Most "user-friendly" distributions, that use KDE as primary, will
have all this. You'll probably need to install PHP. Get a
distribution that is easy to install stuffs like Xandros, Suse,
Mandrake, etc. Avoid Linspire - major security violation to
run as root. Avoid Lycoris - old libraries make it not suitable
for PHP programming.

For discussions of distribution, see
