Ultimate Linux up to version 2.9 now I think hxxp://ultimateedition.info/
I use Ubuntu since 2007, it is almost user friendly and has a lot of supports.
... i'll go for Ubuntu aswell
Ubuntu 11.04
If you are moving to linux from windows,
Ubuntu 11.04 is a good one.
KDE4 is similar to windows but i still prefer ubuntu 11.04
I've used ubuntu, ubuntu netbook remix, linux mint, lubuntu and others. Ubuntu is by far the easiest to find help on and even though its help applies to other versions, it is simpler to follow the help if you are using the version of linux that the help applies to.
Therefore I'd recommend sticking with ubuntu until you've got some linux experience and then try other versions. It is easy to try using a bootable usb stick and an iso image of the linux distro you want to try and there are lots of easy to follow instructions on how to do this.
Good Luck
For not very familiar users, ubuntu is the best
I like Ubuntu, but the unity interface needs to be more polished.
There isn't best one ...
Its all your preference and how comfortable you feel with linux.
My top 3:
Gentoo
Debian
PLD
Unix: TOP1
OpenBSD
In linux debian, the most complete in packages and easiest(if you love TUI) to get installed.
It looks like i'm the onloy one here who likes slackware!
for ease of use i'd still go with distributions based on debian ... ubuntu has been doing a remarkable job keeping everything updated and a new version comes out 2x a year. i have it on my servers and 90% of the workstations at the office
