Linux guide for beginners/Best distro for AA1?

Linux mint is a good start in that it has a lot of the codecs you need already part of the install. I am using the Karmic Koala netbook remix and have had no problems it actually only needed just the restricted extras and the medibuntu packs to read and play all media. I always install Ubuntu Tweak on Ubuntu installs due to it is a easy way to get the 3rd party repositories and keys in one fell swoop. I have seen that the Koala release is already set up pretty well with the needed codecs but I just automatically install the extras and medibuntu stuff.
 
I guess the new Linpus deserves a try. they combined a dual mode os based on Moblin core.
moblin should be really fast (boot in 5 secs)
switchable dual mode with large buttons like the old linpus and ubuntu netbook remix and 2nd regular xfce desktop.
