So, the question is:  what is the best linux distribution for home use?

What I've told people the last 2 years or so is "Fedora or Ubuntu - final
choice based on what the geeky kid next door will help with if you buy the
pizza".

Seriously - Windows is ubiquitous enough that you can *always* find somebody
you can bribe with beer/pizza to help.  Linux, you probably want to be a
bit picky about local liveware support for the distro you choose.
