Latest Ubuntu beta version - Feisty. (I'm using it, and it works nicely.. as its beta, package updates are pretty regular, although - not as much as Gentoo (on my other box). http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Firefox 2.0.0.3 OpenOffice 2.2 geda suite: 20061020 (But I don't use this - I compile from CVS, its easy - once you apt-get install the right -dev packages) If you like that kind of thing, Ubuntu tends to "just work" out of the box, and even has those desktop effects you speak of. I use OpenSUSE on a machine at work, and am not a big fan. In some respects it is nice though.
