Hi, (please don't BCC: mailing lists, it confuses me - and perhaps some mail programs, too) (CC:ed as I don't know if you are subscribed to one of the lists). To your question: In my opinion no. Debian is great, but if you have no Unix/Linux experience, you're in for a very steep learning curve. Better spend a year or two playing with SuSE, RedHat or Mandrake - it's a bit easier to install for a Windows/Mac convert. If you know how to administrate a Linux box, come back to Debian and enjoy the freedom. Of course, if you're highly motivated, or if you have a collegue who will guide you through the initial installation and configuration, Debian is good. Once you have it installed, the difference is not really that big. greetings -- vbi -- OpenPGP encrypted mail welcome - my key: http://fortytwo.ch/gpg/92082481
