Not sure who Ron is, but this sounds more aimed at Nathan, who is the
one searching for a new distro.  I confess I'm waiting on a friend to
burn a copy of Fedora Core, but that's for experimentation purposes. 
SUSE remains my primary distro.  I just feel that, given my work in
FOSS advocacy in general, I should be more familiar with other
distros.
