Debian GNU/Linux is free, supported by HP, and is often cited as the most stable and reliable Linux distribution-which makes it a great alternative for users put off by Red Hat's pricey Enterprise Linux and unsupported Fedora

Hello,
Hereafter you will find an extract from the faq list copied from http://debiansystem.info/faqs
What is the difference between the two versions published by Open Source Press and No Starch Press?
The primary difference is that the version released by No Starch Press will be available worldwide, while Open Source Press only distributes the book in central Europe. As the No Starch version went into print two months after the publication of the original Open Source Press version, we took the opportunity to fold all the errata which had accumulated by then into the printing.
Conclusion, both books are the same (but have a different front panel) and the book released by No Starch Press will have some of the errata fixed since printing started 2 months later.
Hopes this makes things more clear.
By the way, the book is great !
Cheers, Moonlight
