Dear Tux W.,
Conventional wisdom has it that either the Red Hat or Mandrake distributions of Linux are the easiest both for beginners to install and to learn.
However, at least as important as what distribution you install is what resources you gather around you.
There is an excellent resource for Linux beginners at http://www.linuxhelp.net/newbies/, as well as one at http://www.justlinux.com/.
Good luck!
