People are fans of different distros just like there are fana of Windows, Linux, and Mac, so you may not get much USEFUL comparison on a forum. Let me say this, though - the top three or four most popular are popular for a reason. So it makes sense to choose one of the well-liked distros unless you have a specific reason to chose an oddball.
Also, if you go to download some software or you want to find a howto you'll probably find a version for Centos/Red Hat/Fedora, a version for Ubuntu, and maybe one for Debian. So using one of the most popular gives you those resources.
If you choose a distribution that noone has ever hard of that's based on some other distro that's not in the top three, support and program packages are going to be a lot harder to find. The oddballs may be good for some specific purpose, but for general use it's good to have a million other users helping you, posting about any issues, etc.
