wanna try linux, but which one?

so, I finnally fed up with VVindows corp products. wanna try something hot and "crunchy". decided to dive in to linux world. it does not seem so easy. this bro has lots of variations, so for newcomers it is hard to choose. mandriva, fedora, debian, slackware are the monsters. mandriva is userfriendlyness, fedore challenge with its all new tech (without mp3 support), debian is good for its completeness (everything works fine), slackware a bit old fashioned (keeping the brand name). so my choice is fedore. people say it is not good for newbie, but adventure is adventure.

linux has community in kz located at gnu.kz. going to get fedora 7 from them.
