 I could recommend Morphix.  It slims down the install.  Everything is 
in English by default.  There is an easy upgrade path, its Debian 
unstable with tweaks.  Great support via the web forums.   The main 
developer responds w/ hours or a couple of days.  If you want an all 
Gnome, all KDE, gamers edition or Light GUI w/ XFCE (that's what I use 
on my laptop), then there is a Morphix for you.  Or you can customize 
your own Morphix, like the PHLAK.org guys did.  They took the Light GUI 
version and added a bunch of security tools, Kismet, AirSNORT  and 
others and made a security distro.   Its all about the mini-mods.   
Check it out at morphix.org or morphix.sourceforge.net.   I'm hoping 
some of the tools he is writing make their way in to regular Debian or 
that somebody at least fixes/improves the Debian installer.  It sucks.  
Morphix sucks less.
