Depends. The one-CD Storm distribution installs a system without loads
of extra apps. Personally I much prefer this as I can add any apps I
need from the 'net using apt-get. I really hate the SuSE approach of
including the kitchen sink on 5 CDs because so many of the apps are
available in updated form elsewhere. Once I have installed a distro I
never use the CD to install anything else.

If you install the Storm CD you will end up with a nice installation,
including KDE and/or Gnome, Netscape etc. etc..
