Since it looks like you are configuring a server (samba, apache and the
likes). I strongly encourage you to not spend any money and instead
download Debian GNU/Linux from
http://www.debian.org. If you can not
download or have burner issues. Someone from this list will gladly
provide you a CD for free (or at the most blanks and postage).
