With Debian you will probably be happier with the software 
updating system and "free" atmosphere, whether you stay with 
the stable branch or move to "unstable." In particular, I 
think you will prefer debs to rpms. With RH you will 
probably be happier with the tools that detect/recognize 
the hardware. Might want to keep a RH CD around, just for 
that purpose. 

And don't forget the other flavors.
