Reply:For me the most friendly is Knoppix. Ubuntu is not quite intuitive as I expected but both of them are Debian based distros. Debian seems to be more stable.

The Ubuntu distro seems to be the most popular. I would also suggest the "openSUSE" distro. It's put out by Novell and claims to be very user friendly.
