Do a google search and take your pick,

http://www.linuxiso.org/

http://www.linuxlinks.com/Distributions/
http://www.topology.org/soft/linux.html

Try them for starters, you should find somthing you like..

Now a few personal recomendations:

Kubuntu

Mandriva

Knoppix

PCLinuxOS

Blag

OPENSUSE

some people also like Ubuntu

When in Doubt about anything Linux visit:

Linux is a lot different to MAC OSX

linux is all command based
You are right about Linux being different than OS X, but linux is not all command line anymore and I am sure almost anyone here will agree that SuSE, well, sucks.

Correct you are. YaST is probably the worst piece of software I've ever used, and I'd rather live without a computer than have to use SuSE.

(Or, I'd use it long enough to get something better, like Debian )
