and stay away from fedora in a office environment

you DO NOT want to reformat all the office computers every 6 months and do clean installs EVERY 6 months for the new version of fedora

red hat RHEL 5.5 ( is not free )
CentOS 5.5 ( free- but NO tech support)
Debain
SUSE

from your other post you have a geforce 2 nvidia card
this cuts the list to two
RHEL / CentOS
Debain

You do not want Fedora. It's an unstable distribution with very short support periods-- and you would have to re-install it every six months. Definitely not a business distro.

You don't want Mandriva either. The company is a mess, and who knows how long the distro will stay afloat.

Redhat is your best bet as it ships with excellent tech support, but with a big price tag. CentOS is the free version.
