If you have any questions, let me know :) I love Debian, and it's my 
preferred distro.
How did you like the installer? The old installer is a major turnoff to
most folks. The thing I like about Debian is "install once, upgrade always."
This is VERY different that most OSs or linux distros.

Is that something particular to Sarge? I'm unfamiliar with that :(
