Are these multiple systems servers? Debian stable would be good. Debian 
updates are a breeze, both locally and remotely. For the desktop, if you 
pick up one of the debian based distros (Libranet comes to mind, being 
fully debian compatible) you will have easier admin and install, and 
still easy updates. Also, the 'unstable' branch is quite up to date.
