I'd second FC as another good desktop distro. Hey- it wouldn't be very open source of me if I pushed only Ubuntu

FC6 has made great progress on the desktop and they have some good networking tools for things like joining a windows (or Samba) domain, etc. Its a little bigger and as a result a tad slower, but not in a serious way.

I cannot see running RHEL for anything other than a server...and even then I think I'd chose CentOS (which is a totally Open Source but 100% compatible version of RHEL).
