<<SNIP>>
I was going to install Desktop LX from Lycoris for grins the other day. 
Looking for a distribution that was close to windows for newbies, but
had the guts of Debian.  However you state its based on Caldera 3.1.  I
was under the impression it was the old Redmond Linux based on Corel
(which was based on Debian) and why I was considering an install to see
if it was recommendable to others.

Can someone clarify this?

Caldera 3.1 is the basis for this distribution.
http://www.xandros.com/ is the one you're thinking of
http://www.demolinux.org/en/versions/version-debian.html runs from CD for the 
faint of heart....
and finally 
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Linux/Distributions/Debian/Flavours/ 
lists 16 Debian flavors
