One that comes with a good book on it. (or equivalent online docs)
Mandrake is based on RH, so uses RH's packaging system. Storm and Corel are based on Debian, but Storm seems to leave you abruptly post-install in my opinion and Corel has that root exploit. Stampede is too early in its life. Slackware is OK, but you really need a book. SuSE I've never given a fair trial.
In short, I don't know what to recommend at the moment. Help!
