For me Ubuntu is not good anymore. I've been using it ever since I started using Linux but they completely ruined it with Unity desktop. I switched to Linux Mint with KDE desktop and it is better than Ubuntu ever was. KDE is just awesome!

Yep, the learning curve is steep, but emerge -auvD world makes up for it. :)
You forgot the best one!
Mageia is a community based fork of Mandriva/Mandrake. It is robust, intuitive and the plasma desktop look simply stunning! It is developed and maintained by the community on a non-profit basis. The passion of their work really shows up in their just released Mageia 2!
Unity ruined Ubuntu
Latest versions of Ubuntu have Unity desktop and it is a complete disaster. With 11.04 I've switched to Kubuntu with KDE desktop and it is light years ahead, even compared to good old Ubuntu with GNOMe 2 desktop.

I have been using BT5 R2 for a while and I really like it, it is simple and powerful.
