Hi Neil, I'm along time Debian user (7 years) and if there was something 
wrong with Mepis I would not suggest you trying it, saying that, Mepis 
has one click tools that Debian don't have, like it will repair grub for 
you with a click or reinstall a working x-configuration for you with a 
click, install and save /home with a click, add and remove users with a 
click, check file-systems with a click, the list goes on... Sure these 
things can be done without "One Click Linux", but why?

One day the "Debian Live CD Project" may create such a live cd but not 
today. :)
