Distro discussion

Hi, I've been lurking here for a while, so I thought I'd try and start a conversation. I've been using Linux for about a year, but wouldn't consider myself any kind of expert.

I was wondering which distros people use, and if you stick to just one, or if you "distro-hop" or use different ones on different machines. What do you love most about your distro of choice?

I've always used Xubuntu on my Eee netbook. I love Xfce, and how easy it is to stay updated using the Update Manager. Also, I agree with other commenters that there's a lot of support on the Ubuntu forums- I always have found the answer I needed.

We have Debian on the shared desktop/server, but I'm not the one who maintains it. I do like how easy it is to add packages.
