Distros such as Ubuntu are designed with the Gnome GUI, which is designed for Speed yet looks. If you used Kubuntu, im sure you would have loved the GUI, but on an older machine it's not recommended. Plus, if you don't know linux, sitting down to a gnome box isnt going to be to easy. The GUI is very limiting. Honestly, I like Gentoo linux the most compiled with GFCE or Fluxbox as the GUI. Simple yet elegant. Plus, with a custom-install linux box, it's much easier to get stuff to work seeing as you compiled it all. Another thing I like about Gentoo is the Portage tree. I like installing shit by saying "emerge apache". It's just so much easier.
