Linux

I'm thinking that I'll upgrade the version of Linux that I have installed on my desktop. I was using Fedora Core 2, but I haven't been impressed with it (or Fedora Core 1). They lack "polish" and seem to be beta-quality. So I'm pondering trying out a different distribution (e.g. SuSe, Slackware, Mandrake, Debian, Gentoo, etc.). I'm looking for something that is stable, mainstream, easy to upgrade, and come with a reasonable set of packages/software (that is fairly up to date). Does anyone have any suggestions (or an opinion about Fedora Core)?

Slackware is supposed to be really really stable; I think that is there big thing. I have also been told Debian is really good.
