Convince me about Debian

Several people have said "Knopix!" but all I can find is a run-from-CD thing
that comes on a single CD. I don't want to run from CD. Its very frustrating
trying to sort out 7 different distros each with 5 versions made up of
hundreds of separate packages. That's why I let that RH7.3 dog keep
sleeping. Learn Linux in 100,000 easy steps!
