It depends what you want to "Learn". In my point of view, Gentoo is a very good distro to learn how lots of things work with Linux. Most other distro's are no brainers to install, with automated installation routines like you have with windows. Gentoo on the other hand, allows you to build your installation to suite your hardware best, and you get to compile the modules etc. That way you learn a lot along the way by just installing it and using the excellent installation handbook, which explains a lot of things along the way.

Once you have setup Gentoo (maybe after a couple of failed attempts) you should decide on further things you need to learn about Linux.

The
Gentoo 2007.0 Universal install CD is the full version installation cd
Gentoo 2007.0 LiveDVD is the rescue cd
Gentoo 2007.0 Minimal CD/InstallCD is the minimal installation cd
Gentoo 2007.0 Universal install CD is the full version installation cd
Gentoo 2007.0 LiveDVD is the rescue cd
Gentoo 2007.0 Minimal CD/InstallCD is the minimal installation cd
Then minimal CD makes you do the most work during the installation, you learn more, while the universal version has some automated setup routines on it. The LiveCD doesn't require an installation, it allows you to start Gentoo directly from the CD and work with it, without installing anything. There are many distro's with LiveCD, Knoppix and Ubuntu are some of the best known.
