I had to stop using Linux on the desktop, but I've tried out a few of the bigones (Debian/Gentoo/Ubuntu/CentOS/RH) and they were all mostly ok. For day to day desktop work I use FreeBSD, but I also use OSX, since both require me to do very little work to maintain them and I can focus on doing actual work. In terms of the OS I have to spend the most time fixing (for customers/friends), hands down its Ubuntu, Debian/RH/CentOS require some time but not nearly as much. I attribute that mostly to popularity and frequency of updates, but I also kinda think that could be controlled with a heavier QA process. enh :)
