Debian and Dell?

[Ed Sutherland <digital@twcny.rr.com>]

Hi All,

I just purchased a Dell for my home office and am interested in using 
Debian on a partition. As my only Linux experience comes from a Mac, I 
have some questions:

1) Will I be able to easily dual-boot Windows or Linux using yaboot, or 
will I need to go through some BIOS mumbo-jumbo?

2) Does Debian support the Dell flatscreen monitors?

3) Does the i86 side of Debian better support Web graphics and animation 
formats -- such as shockwave?

Thanks for the answers.

Ed
