There is always Gentoo ;-)
http://gentoo.berkeley.edu

Free, supported on many more platforms (Alpha,PPC,x86,Sparc), is
actively maintained, and for many operations, much faster (i see 30-40%
speed improvements on my P4), and sports the latest KDE (kde-3.1.5), mozilla
(1.6) et alii.

Binaries distros have MANY shortcomings, leaving you to have to grab
source RPMs anyway. (not linked w/ right libraries, et alii)

Why not start out with source, so you know what is you are running?
