Since no one else has yet, I'll throw in my hat for openSUSE. Why? I like a
Linux distro that's highly configurable, offers a modern desktop experience,
and providers GUI access to a lot of lower-level configuration for those
times when I don't feel like fumbling around in man pages and configuration
files. So for me, openSUSE with KDE and YaST is a good match. Kubuntu is
great, too, and I often switch back and forth between the two.
