Mercurial also makes merging changes much easier than SVN.
Mercurial's another good program and shares many of the same features as Bazaar. It's all a matter of taste, really.

Stay away from Git, though. It's way too easy to break a repository in Git and not understand what's going on. I don't understand what it's doing half the time.

Definitely don't want to get into a Git vs. svn debate, but don't be afraid to try Git out. I'm in the same boat as you though, it can be quite complicated. However, I find that the support community for Git is terrific and once you learn the basics of what it's doing you are able to do some pretty sweet stuff.
