If you want an up to date version of ye olde linux, slackware 15 beta looks pretty good. (But the stable version is really old now.)

I never used slackware :) My trajectory was, roughly, Red Hat (not RHEL, the old one) → FreeBSD → DragonflyBSD → Gentoo → Knoppix (used it to install on a new laptop) → Debian → Ubuntu. The main reason I'm sticking with Ubuntu/Debian family is the package management and PPA stuff. FreeBSD folks thought highly of their ports system back in the day (and Gentoo's portage was inspired by FreeBSD ports) but in fact it had all kinds of dependency problems that grew over time.
