You also forgot Ubuntu. I used this once, erased the CD that I put it on and used it for something else.

I run a Mac, and I'm a Mac snob so you would know my answer. Linux distributions get followers and getting them to agree on which is the best is impossible. Here is a suggestion: Get what you feel is the best, research on-line and then CHOOSE. You will not 'loose' as all of these distributions are good. The best is a real debate.
