I recommend Xubuntu. It's Ubuntu but with XFCE instead of the 1GB of RAM sucking Unity UI.
I recently switched to Xubuntu from Linux Mint XFCE. The Linux Mint distros are a bit nicer, but they do not support dist-upgrade so you have to do a complete reinstall when you want to upgrade to the next version. Xubuntu supports dist-upgrade.
