I suggest mandrake 9.2. It's free, easy to install and pretty stable.

Thank you for your answer
I am using windows my friends says suse ise more useful for reading fat32 partition and use this partition like a flopy driver .. . What do you think about suse 9.0?

I recommend Red Hat 9 since it's easy and you can learn some Linux from it. Best thing to do is to try different ones and find the one that suits you best.

I recommend Suse........I'm still using windows, but after severe research, I found Suse is the best for anyone who don't wanna involve lighter programming and those who wanna use their computer for productivity such, Sound Recording, Video Editing and so. Nonetheless, I'm gonna try Mandrake 9.2 before I buy my new Athlon 64 system.

I'm with LostMan on this one, Mandrake 9.2 all the way. By far the easiest Linux to use. It helps make the conversion from windows to Linux... not easy, but less complicated.
