I could also recommend Gentoo linux. The user base is getting bigger by the 
day, and they have a package system (Portage) similar to Apt. I've had it on 
a system here for a while. Longer to build everything from scratch than to 
install from a set of RPMs, but post-install maintenance is sooo much better.

Debian and Gentoo are 2 hot choices. I'd say Gentoo has a tendancy to be more 
bleeding edge than Debian. Debian has a larger user base.

I'm never going back to RPM based systems myself...

Hope this is of some help!
