if you want the power of debian with the ease of use of some other distros,
go install Progeny, which is simply commercial Debian.
- http://www.progeny.com/
it installs with GNOME (updated to 1.4 last week), but you can change that
obviously. I apt-get upgraded my Vaio from Debian 2.2r3 to Progeny
1.whateverwasonthedistservers and it got X running (which I couldn't sort on
2.2r3 without considering compiling up a new install of X). And updates
over the web are a doddle.
