I find mandrake to be bloated and will slow down a not so powerful computer. I use slackware

For beginners I recommend SuSE. Mandrake or RedHat (Fedora) are either too bloat or too buggy. SuSE is stable and easy to install.
If you has some experience in Linux than Gentoo or Slackware is a nice one.
