You should definitely upgrade to PG 7.1.

Don't know which "ranking" you are referring to. These are good
distributions. Red Hat is also good, but IMHO some things in 7.0 just
shouldn't have shipped the way they were. Supposedly 7.1 will be much
better.
Debian is excellent. I've been running for quite some time and am very
happy with it. If you are looking for an easy install of Debian, try
Progeny Debian (www.progeny.com).
