   Hi James!

    RM>> But I am a Debian user ;)   
    JM> I've never used Debian, is it a steep learning curve if you've used   
    JM> Slackware / Redhat before?   
      
   In ancient times I used Redhat, it was not really a big change.   
      
   But keep in mind that Debian is more "mature" ... read they have sometimes   
   have older version of programs.   
   So it is definitely not bleeding edge ;)   
      
   I use it mostly for headless systems.   
      
   For ones where you want to have a GUI you can try the debian based Ubuntu.
