Puppy Linux. You could try out a ton of different distros to see which you like best by running them straight off a usb stick in a virtual environment. It's dead easy and fast if you use this - http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

If you are asking which linux then you don't have the answers you need to differentiate between performance of competing linux OSes. Choose any  I prefer windows 3.1. Dinosaurs 3d is really good

You can also use keyboard shortcuts to move windows between workspaces which is the more practical way to do it. Updates don't require a reboot the majority of the time or interrupt anything you're doing. That's about all I've got for practical everyday advantages that don't apply to a really minimal number of users who probably know the advantages of linux for them already.

If you're doing anything that actually matters, like as part of a job where money and other peoples time is on the line, you use CentOS. If you don't agree you have no business getting paid to do even lovely server janitor jobs.
