Ubuntu linux has been really easy to set up, administrate and install/run programs. It has a huge user base, really good support forums and supports a large variety of hardware configurations. I'm running it on my Thinkpad T40, which I use for PHP development when travelling. It's rock solid and easy to work with. Definitely ought to be one of the packages you consider.
