Ubuntu or kubuntu?

I can’t decide between the two. I like both ubuntu and kubuntu equally and I’ve been running both off the live cd for a few weeks. I installed a new hard drive so I can finally set up my dual boot and then I just have not been able to decide. Any suggestions? Pros/cons? I know they’re pretty much the same from an operating system viewpoint but what do you think? What’s your personal favorite and why? Anything will help.

And also my computer won’t have a problem running either.
3GB RAM
AMDX2 5000+ (2.6ghz)
500GB Hard drive (only for linux I have another 400GB for my Vista)

For Linux users: What open source OS would you recommend?

I want to try a Linux based OS on my machine as dual boot system w/ Windows Vista. Found lots of info in net, tried Ubuntu Live CD (without install), however cannot decide which OS will be the best for me. I’m not experienced w/ Linux and just want to try open source soft. I researched all of these distributions http://www.linux.com/distributions/ Is out there something else I don’t know about? Also the question is which distribution will work the best on my machine which is HP Pavillion dv9420us, see http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/product_detail.do?storeName=computer_store&landing=computers&category=notebooks/dv9000z_series&subcat1=rts&catLevel=3&product_code=GA354UA%23ABA&tab=detailed_specs#defaultAnchor Thanks!

I Have a PC Booting Problem?

Here is what happened. I found out about this thing called wubi so I installed it and it worked good. I installed beryl. I was having problems with screen resolution and frequency. So I edited the some file. Then I restarted my pc and when I select either Windows or Wubi the system stops working and restarts.I do not care about ubuntu. If I can not find a solution I will run a Linux Live CD, copy all my files tomy web server and MegaUpload. Then I will do system recovery. Is this the best solution. If there is a way to fix this please let me know. By the way I cannot boot windows in safe mode or any other mode. I would Really appreciate some help.
