I like Ubuntu, but if you want to switch from Windows to Linux, I suggest Linspire [AKA Lindows]. It's $49, but I have a special coupon code for it.

The main thing that bugs me is their CNR [one click install thing] which you need to pay extra for. But just ignore it, enable apt-get, then type apt-get install synaptic at the terminal. Then, just type synaptic at the terminal. You then have an equally easy to use one click install system, and it's free. Personally, I find it less fussy.
