I really enjoy Gnome on Arch. I have a lot of experience with Linux (i.e. most of my life), but it's been getting significantly harder to destroy your system by updating. Just make sure you do everything through the repo. I chose Arch because it is usually on the ball with new kernels. Ubuntu and Debian (I found) had many issues with newer hard ward, though any hardware a year or two old was usually supported.
