Hi,
Porbably not the most appropriate list for this question.

Countably many. Tons. It doesn't matter.

> Free

Most of them are free to download, you usually have to pay for
professional support.

> Looks good

They all look pretty much the same, since they use the same software.
They just might have different default themes. But you can make a
Debian look like a SuSE.

> Works well

Any mainstream distro does.

> Has an "Office suite"

Only one? Most have three.

> Can be put onto a CD for CD Boot

Most can, the level of difficulty just varies. I'd suggest to go with Ubuntu.

All do.
If you are a beginner, go with Ubuntu or SuSE.
If you are a developer, go with Debian.
If you are crazy about optimizing every tiny bit of your system,
without caring if this takes hours and hours - go with Gentoo.
