Well, you should read up on Linux maybe? Do you understand what different distributions are?

SuSE 9.2 is pretty good. That's what I use on my Linux systems. The professional flavour is the best edition. It has the best security, development and power. It is also recommended by hackers! 
Never hack, it is bad. But thats the Linux I recommend. It is also availible in a 64bit edition for Athlon 64 users!

Freewebs doesn't allow you to link to images, etc, from other sites. Get a decent host.

Well I'm no expert...
I recently read an article on Open Source software in which they discuss the pro's and cons of Linux (im tempted to switch...)
Anywho the major distributions are Red Hat,SuSE and Debian. These are the ones that have the most support. However support is from enthusiests and unless u buy it somewhere there no warrenty.
But Linux is renowned for kicking Microsofts ass! Watch for software as not everything works with Linux. Good luck!
