Does anyone have any experience with Debion versus Ubuntu? Which is more stable? Which is the easiest to use with Orca? I know that Ubuntu seems to be the latest Linux rage and has really taken quite a foot hold in the Linux community. I've been thinking about installing Ubuntu on one of my machines, but if Debion has a greater advantage, I'd like to know before I plunge into the happy world of learning a whole new operating system. Thanks in advance.
