But I am not a fan of Linux as an "overall"
I can tell, because "Distro" isn't a reference to a specific distro of Linux, which made your post look really senselessly posted.

In your case, the only thing you need is a simple and stable kernal and basic applications without X. If you need a GUI interface, go with fluxbox or blackbox. All really good, efficient, stable, GUI interfaces.
EDIT:
Forgot you needed applications. Imho, it depends on what skill levels you have with running linux. If you're a complete newb, then run Ubuntu; if your skills are sufficient, then I'd advise running gentoo or fedora. Mind you, the less unstable the distro is, the more of a pain-in-the-ass it is too; but often is much more demanding--and rewarding ;)
