Which is the easiest Linux to use?

I don't mean the simplest system, I mean the system that is as virtually user friendly as a Windows OS. I'm refurbishing a PC for someone who can just about turn a computer on, so I need a very easy to use OS.

Cheers.

Ubuntu is a peace of cake.

There's a new distribution called Santa Fe Linux that is designed to be user friendly for Windows users. It even has a "Start" button where you access all of the programs like in Windows. The hompage is: http://www.santafelinux.com/

VERY nice!

I used Knoppix with KDE/Redmond theme initially too. It's still got the K instead of Start on the Start menu though. And make the taskbar small if you go this route - it did make a difference for me since the default in KDE is twice as tall as the default in Windows.
