So far. Except that you completely snipped off my reply. (Not
too much of a big deal.)

The tenor of your conversation screams "newbie". Thus, I suggest
that Ubuntu is probably the path to travel, not Debian. If you
grow in geekiness, then you can wipe out Ubuntu and install
Debian. (Putting /home in it's own partition is *mandatory*.)
yes !
However, the wireless kb is probably a lost cause. Not that I'd
use one anyway. Radiating my passwords and CC numbers isn't what
I consider wise

My mistake. It's 802.11g.

yes i am a total newbie to the linux world, the reason i chose debian is
because the cnc system is debian, after doing some minor research into it i
decided to keep it simple {yeah right} i will make this work !
thanks for the understanding with us newbies, i will probably drop the
wireless kb, thanks for the heads-up about security
