I'll hang out for Slackbuntu (Slackware stability and ease of use, combined with free copies of CDs being thrown around).
There is this already... but it's much easier to install.
And it's called ......... Ubuntu.
Sorry - couldn't resist.
Easier to install? I must have missed something when I installed and briefly attempted to use Ubuntu. Do you mean that it is _easier_ to install only the packages that I want? Do you mean that it is easier to install onto a 586 with 32mb of RAM? Or perhaps you find it is easier to install it onto a CD-Rom-less machine via the PCMCIA slot?
Maybe you need Olbuntu, which would be suitable for old hardware...
