Hi, All three of the distributions you mentioned are major .. Ubuntu is more of a graphical Linux which will keep you safe, but will also restrict your learning experience in the sense that getting to a Root (administrator) command line is not encouraged. Fedore and SuSE are the other two major distributions, I personally used to use SuSE and have moved back to Fedora which has improved a lot lately (last 3 years). To me they are equivalent, but SuSE belongs to Novell, which was sold recently to AtachMate. SuSE also works closer with Microsoft, which for a Windows guy would seem better but for a Linux guy, makes us somewhat nervous!
RPM/DEB both work well, and shouldn't influence your choice.
