Are you set on using Debian?  Ubuntu is similar, is more focused on
beginners, and is a single CD download. www.ubuntu.com

I like Debian better, but Ubuntu does have its advantages.  Particularly
for people new to Linux.

If you definitely want to stick w/ Debian, you don't need to download
all 31 CDs, but I can't tell you which ones you need.  I always do a net
install.
