See here (http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=04/10/30/1322227) for a description of what your choice of Linux Distro says about you.

And vote for your own distro too!

I have a question that fits nicely in here.

what distro should i use?

It will be mainly for testing and playing with so it isn't mission critical.  Redhat/fedora seems to be common but should it be the one i go for?  It wil be mainly running php/mysql (and folding for me aswell :) )

Cheers

Personally I am playing with Fedora and it seems to run real nice and is easy to pick up.  Gandalf also uses Fedora, as does Stryker, Doggers and a bunch of other peeps.
