Or is it geared more towards the power-user? Supposedly it's the home user, but considering the difficulty as compared to something like Windows (or an easy Linux distrib like Red Hat or Mandrake) I'd have to say that Debian is for the computer literate and above home users. > 2. Where is Debian located? I understand there are over 800 distrubuters nationwide that communicate via e-mail and message boards. But is there a specific "home" to debian? If you mean the "main" site it's where you probably signed up for this list at. www.debian.org > 3. What is the latest Kernel version? 2.4.17 I do believe. But that's a Linux issue, not a Debian issue per se. Check out www.kernel.org > 4. What is the default desktop? and what others are included? Default desktop is Gnome. You can also install KDE. And a LOT of different window managers. > 5. What, if any, office suites are included? I don't think any real office suite is included by default with Gnome. KDE comes with KOffice. You can always get StarOffice from Sun though, which is free and works fine on any Java platform. -Alex
