Default Which desktop Linux?

I want to setup a dual boot Linux on my home pc.

main aim is to install php/mysql and start work on v4 of my website, so I need to replicate my live website.

I've tried Mandrake 9 and RedHat 9 previously, and preferred Mandrake.

However I note Mandrake 10 is out now, so which is the current flavour of the month?

Mandrake 10
Suse 9.1
Fedora
Debian?

I'd like something fairly easy to use, and that can be updated without much effort

cheers,

greg

Tried Madrake 9 and Redhat 9, couldn't get on with Mandrake at all.

Got Suse 9.1 to try sometime, but not got around to it since getting an iMac to play with

Lindows is pretty straightforward if you like Linux
