What Linux Distro do you use?

While at it which distro should I pickup?;

I'm looking for something fast, Intel and Internet compatible - basically it would be a machine for browsing and storing data...

Depends, how linux knowledgable are you? Mandrake seems to be good for (near) beginers, which they will still be happy with after getting more knowledgable. Slackware seems to be good for all the people with enough linux knowledge to know what is really going on. Debian also seems to be popular amongst all kinds of people.

Maybe something with a windows-like GUI - I honesty don't know squat about linux but I need something for my laptop which would run decently;
Laptop Specs;
MMX Centrino @ 333 mhz
32MB of RAM

[Should be torched and peed on, I know]

I'm a FreeBSD guy personally, so I only have one Linux box, which is....

(drumroll)

Mandrake.

Been thinking of dual booting my desktop, but haven't gotten around to doing it yet.

Currently I have debian installled. Thinking about switching to Fedora. Apt is giving me nightmares. I might give it a second chance though.

Yeah, I finally went with Fedora, and it hasn't let me down yet. I like yum alot actually, not quite as good as apt I hear, but I haven't had problems with it.
