My employer, Tuxtops, preloads our systems with RedHat at present;  Debian
is being worked on (primarily by me) and will be released on all of our 
models as soon as I've got a balanced kit booting properly and tuned up.
A handful of people are on the waiting list to get one as soon as we're 
shipping.

IOW, it's in the oven baking, soon there will be many potatoes ;D  But you're
welcome to buy one of our systems and fill'er up with Debian yourself;  you
can even buy a drive half empty and make it half RH, half Debian.
