You might want to check this out Ubantu. I have downloaded the Live CD and am learning to use it.

All depends on what you want to use the system for: server, desktop with GUI, command line only, firewall?

Damn Small Linux is a nice choice. It's small enough to fit onto a small USB pen drive at a whopping 50mb. It can be booted from a USB pen drive or from a CD. Check out http://damnsmalllinux.org/ for more info.

Puppy Linux is another distro that's not a resource hog.
It's not a point -n-click installation, though.
