First of all, I see that you are using Microsoft Entourage for sending your e-mail, and this would lead me to the conclusion that you're using a Mac. You can, BTW, install Debian, not only on "regular PC's", but also on Macs (see the debian-powerpc mailing list for discussions related to using Debian on PowerPC-based machines, like recent Macs). Anyway, back to your question, it will be a good learning experience to use Debian in your "new computer", especially if you take some time to make experiments and not care that much about not messing your installation. You will take some few days to learn what programs you need and what programs you don't. Hope this helps, Rogério.
