Good choice of software and wide support for the same available.
One of my friends would be giving me a copy of Debian Etch . Would that be good enough ?.
Yes, debian is a very good distro. But, etch has some quite old packages, these feel too outdated for desktop usage. You can go for sid, which is quite a lot more cutting edge and more suited to many desktop users.
Other alternatives I can suggest are Ubuntu and Sabayon, both of which I can give to you, if you'd like to try them out.
