i've heard nothing but good things about slackware
since going that route apparently gives you total control
i can't speak from experience there though
i CAN however speak of SuSE
in a phrase: don't like it
everything in the os is "special"
programs and config files are kept in odd places
and the suse boot concept is non-linux standard as well
i rather like redhat
but if they get with aol
even a little
i'm leaving.
i'll try out mandrake
and then if that doesn't work
i'm going to slackware
