Just to make this less confusing: choose Ubuntu. I say this because it is
easy to use, has great repositories and it is the most popular Linux
distro, so it should be easy to get help with it. I have been running it
on a number of machines doing a few different kinds of tasks and it has
almost always been very easy to install. I'm also happily running the
Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a little Asus EeePC netbook. To install R, just
use the Synaptic program:

It couldn't be easier.
I don't work for Ubuntu and I don't have any friends or relatives working
there either.
