I went with Mint. I've read it's the easiest for beginners. Once I learn more about this new environment, I may experiment with others. I have 3 1T drives in my PC and I have one dedicated for that process whenever I get to that point. Thats the idea anyways.

Yeah. Mint uses cinnamon. Good to have that Name in Your head :)
