Ubuntu is Debian so if you like it go for it, it is just an offspring (full Debian based) i tried it but did not like it at all i prefer Debian because with Ubuntu i got the same problems i had with Debian except Ubuntu does not install the same way. alot of packages are not in Ubuntu that are in Debian.

If you know Linux then Debian should come second nature some things are different the what your use to (CentOS) like package manager its

apt-get

The install is net-install less downloading to start the install. Either way you go if you have questions i could most likely help you out with most of them.

My Notebook runs so light i have not ever been into my swap yet, Only using 131mb of 512 memory at this moment with lamp running on my notebook for testing it only has a 13% CPU load

(Windows always had at least 90 up on CPU using 434 mb of 512 memory)

Most of the conf files are in the same place as CentOS (I am not 100% sure i stopped playing with CentOS like 8 months ago) I had DE running on CentOS it was ok but i prefer Debian my personal choice.

some other Deb Based (I believe i have tried them all)

Unbuntu
Kubuntu
Damn Small Linux
SimplyMEMPIS

There are more i just don't know the whole list.
