Linux Mint is good if you have never tried Linux before and you have enough knowledge about computers that you feel comfortable experimenting, you should try Linux Mint. It is based off of Ubuntu (which is based off of Debian) and uses it's own custom program installer called mintInstall. One of the nice things about Linux Mint is that it includes many things in the default install such as Java, media codecs, DVD playback, and browser plugins like Flash.
