Thanks Nate I will do just that. As for my testimonial I only say it how I see it. I feel confident in using Debian and where I don't understand something there is an copious amount of documentation which is easy to find at www.debian.org and aslong as it is read which I think those who moan about Debian probably do not then there shouldn't be too many problems but there is always the mailing list to fall back on if the documentation still doesn't help us so really Debian is the ultimate Linux package because guidance is always at hand. I am trying to stick with the reading because I like discovering solutions myself, I seem to have a knack for it but when I need help I will ask one of the friendly folk from the mailing list.
