Mike, (and everyone on the list)Sorry for the "me too" letter, but I have to give my kudos to the entire Debian community. Having used Linux since 1991 on a 386sx 16 with kernel build .99, and having tried Slackware, Redhat, Caldera, Turbo Linux, and lastly Debian, I must echo James's sentiments that Debian is by far the superior distribution. You will definitely not be disappointed.
