The unofficial slackware 64bit version....

this does not have gnome, so download dropline-gnome for 64-bit

Default Open SuSE

You can use Open SuSE 10.0 http://en.opensuse.org/Welcome_to_openSUSE.org

You can have a dual boot system

Instead of asking here I'd suggest you read Mark Shuttleworth's Interview with LFY this month or this webpage.
http://www.tsf.org.za/
This gives you an idea abt mark shuttleworth's aim and ambition.
