I've gotten Ubuntu to install with no special work on my part on
Parallels Desktop on my Dual Core Mac Mini. I'm thinking that just
because it is not on the supported list doesn't mean it is not a
viable combination, just that they didn't try it.

Fargo,
Thanks for the advice. Parallels Desktop doesn't support Ubuntu, so
I'll try SUSE.

By and large linux is still free, with pay options for support and
whatnot. As Christian said, Ubuntu is pretty nice. If you want to
set it up to use less RAM you can use the alternate Xubuntu, which
is really just Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome for the desktop.
Ubuntu also borrows pretty heavily from OS X for it's overall
flow. For instance, while you can change this, by default there
isn't a root user, you sudo everything, and Gnome is like a
somewhat uglier Apple menu layout.
My second choice is tougher. I'd say either SuSE, or Fedora Core.
I've had good experiences with both, though I'm going to lean
towards SuSE for now, just because it seems a little lighter on
it's toes.
Good luck,
Fargo
With price a consideration, what Linux versions would you
recommend as 1st and 2nd choices for making plugins.
