I've been using Debian (currently Sarge) for about five years (for everything that Amiga can't do better--including handle Japanese), and I see you're already way ahead of me.

Now I learned to shrink the windows partition and made place to install Linux.
(after confirming almost all I need/want to do personally can be done on
open source things.)
