I would love to get Debian, please tell from "where" could we ge get that.
It can be installed via the Internet if you have the bandwidth to download 100-500Mb. For more information on this go to http://packages.debian.org
It can be installed from CD(s). Many on the LUG have the CD's and some even sell them. For elementary introduction to installation from CD check out http://abhijit-rao.tripod.com/digital/inst_linux_db.html
Welcome to wonderful world of Debian. With it you will have the following advantages.
#1. Choice of 3 distributions. Stable (The rock solidest Linux ever! ;). Unstable. Testing. #2. Astounding number of packaged software. #3. Intelligent installer to install packages from various sources with complete & automatic dependency resolution. You will have to work /hard/ to get broken packages.
