I'd personally go with Debian or Slackware.  You'll have to do a bit of
extra installing with Slackware over debian's apt-get ease, but you have
much more fine-grained control over what goes in the install without the
pain (I like slack's install).  As well, you don't have to disable tons of
services, blah blah blah.  I use red hat on my desktop, but it's mostly
because I have a large disk, and because I'm quite attached to Evolution,
and some of the other stuff that is on Redhat. My other boxen run
slackware.
