PCLinuxOS 2009...
This has been the single most stable OS of all for me. I cannot get it to crash!
I have it fully bootable from a 16GB USB stick auto-running into E-UAE on an AA1 netbook that is SSDless and HDDless...
My first attempt at Linux was a full genuine Yggdrasil P'n'P Fall 1995 edition. Never ever got it working correctly. Still got the original 2 CDs and Manual, Sadly the box has gone.
My next attempt was Caldera 7.0, Then 7.1, worked fine unless I wanted sound... ;o/
Then came Knoppix 3.something and that worked and my eyes lit up. I still use a live CD version of 5.1.1 for testing purposes.
Tried Mandriva/Mandrake, 9.0? can't remember, and that was seriously unstable.
Ended up with Debian 6.0.x + Gnome, (squeeze?), and use this along with PCLinuxOS 2009 + KDE, and Knoppix 5.1.1 + KDE as test beds and main OSes...
To re-iterate PCLinuxOS 2009 has been, and is the one, single most, stable consumer OS I have ever had the pleasure to use...
(Dare I say I am using Windows ATM, or is this considered swearing... ;o)
