It's annoying enough to install one OS, let alone doing it multiple times until you get one you like. (Not to mention that most people don't have the resources or patience to download multiple 100s of megs, multiple times.) If I was talking to a Linux newcomer, I'd recommend RedHat. Love it or hate it, you can get it CD from many places, it's pretty well supported, and as a newcomer you'll get a fairly good idea of how Linux works.
