Give PCLinuxOS a try.
It's organized and many programmers use it already...especially perl hackers (we've got a ton in the developers mailing list). Overall feel, look, and stability is fantastic.
It's rocketed up to #6 at distrowatch.com and it's only 3 years old. There's a reason it's that popular. And it's the top distro that ISN'T funded by a company or sponsored by a company...that also tells you tons

PCLinuxOS is very cool. but its not free
if you cant hit 2 birds with one stone try hitting just one or you will end up with nothing at all
sorry i thougth it was not free. but i guess iwas wrong
if you cant hit 2 birds with one stone try hitting just one or you will end up with nothing at all
how about zenwalk(formerly known as miniclack)??
anyone ever tried this distro before???

was it minislack never knew that?
never tried ti. If you like that though, try DreamLinux ive used it and would recommend
Frankly for most ppl ubuntu edgy eft (or debian edtch) does just fine.
I currently run a customised edgy with XGL, compiz and the "slab" menu from SLED, it looks great (better than vista) and uses less than it in terms of ram
