Get the latest release (2.13?), as the CMS features are growing fastest. It's simply the easiest one to get up and running and use. Drupal makes a powerful community site - I use it as an rss aggregator. Joomla can also create far more powerful web sites, but be prepared to hack a lot of code to get it to do what you want.

I've used both successfully. Wordpress is definitely easier to use, but joomla is much more powerful. I've messed around with drupal, but it is more complicated that either wordpress or joomla. It might be more powerful too, but I didn't have the time to invest. I’d echo wordpress or joomla. I’ve used both successfully.

Use pages, and the option to have people land on a specific page when they hit your site, instead of the "blog" timeline. I've heard great things about Joomla, too, which is also LAMP. MediaWiki might be a good option, too. It's LAMP, and easier to install than WordPress, even. Drupal is kind of the de facto standard CMS that everyone uses, but I find it to be a huge pain. Joomla is supposed to be better, but you know I'm a huge WordPress and MediaWiki fanboy, so I'm recommending those first. :-) WordPress is a great CMS.
