I'll just mention my early experiences with Linux.  I collected quite a few 
distros (many from my local LUG), and just sat down and tried installing 
them.  If one didn't install on the first try, I just set it aside (thinking 
I'd come back to it if I had to).  When I got one to install, I played around 
with it a while--if it seemed to have everything I wanted (none did) I would 
have stopped (leaving it installed). 

When I got through the entire pile, I thought back over which distro installed 
and came closest to what I wanted, re-installed that, and went with that.  

Aside: Back at that time, it was Mandrake, and, iirc, something like 6.0 or 
6.1.  I still think Mandriva is a pretty good distro for a beginner, but my 
last install was Kubuntu (on a laptop), as will my next install (on my 
desktop).
