I dont use Linux, but im very interested in trying to learn it. I hear there is an easy distro called P.H.L.A.X or P.H.L.U.X. . its one of those bootable ones from a cd which u pop in so you dont need to install it. i forget the term for it, but i think im going to check it out. Right now i use a different windows shell called Litestep, which is very customizable and looks alot like linux, if you want it to that is.
