As not beeing mentioned so far:
Give Mandriva One 2008 a go as well.
It combines what you like from other distros with the benefit of a fully company backed up support for drivers and up to date repositories.
This means long term stability through stable upgrades instead of "hacky up to date distros" and only one version every few years thats beeing considered long time stable and the like.
