I'll second the recommendation of Mint, my first officially adopted distro, and second Debian as well. Fedora's nice, though I personally don't care for KDE. MEPIS is simple and straightforward (KDE again), but you may want to skip over (for now anyway) Damn Small Linux which is really only valuable (IMHO) if you have an older machine. Best bet: check out DistroWatch and burn a live disk of every one that sounds interesting.
