Assuming that you didn't think I was asking "what's your favorite
distro,"
can I in fact point my /etc/apt/sources.list at a Debian server and have
it update/upgrade without breaking things? There's the additional concern
that I have hardware, particularly video, that pretty much demands binary
drivers, and if memory serves Debian is highly allergic to those.

Ubuntu is one of the many Debian-derived distros, lot of packages in the Ubuntu repository
comes from Debian repository.
For many things, I would expect things to just work once have a Debian + TDE setup and you
copy over your config.
If you are looking at converting an existing Ubuntu system to something else, things may
get broken. I usually create a
new system and copy over my config. But Debian is definitely a good choice if you want to
try it, given Ubuntu comes out
of that.
