Debian -vs- Win95?



We have bought a PC (AMD K7 Athlon
with Hewlett-Packard CD recorder) to act as a server
allowing people to copy their data on this server and
record their CDs.
We also want to attach our fax to this server
and "use it as a printer" from other PCs in the net.

Should I,

Instal Windows 9x (easy to install and the software for
the HP recorder will probably work under Windows)

or

Install Debian with
samba, mgetty-fax and cdrecord.
(I have never configured none of this
applications.)
?

If I install Debian everything should work fine,
otherwise my colleagues will "ask" me to install
Windows.
