Mandrakes backend is not debian, they use rpms. In fact they started out
as a RedHat compiled for pentium CPUs, but have since then matured into
being just Mandrake. You may be thinking of MEPIS, a new and very small
Debian-based distro which recently got rave reviews. It also has free
downloads.

The OP may want to have a look at http://www.distrowatch.com/ for a very
comprehensive listing of distros, their merits, and intended audience.
Also includes lots of links to reviews
