Default Synaptic v/s apt-get

Hi firends,

I'm new to Debian/Knoppix (Redhatian previously), I have installed
Synaptic on my machines for package managment.

I think Synaptic uses dpkg and dselect in the background.

Do I still need apt-get? or can I erase apt-get altogether? or what
exrta packages do you think, can be removed harmlessly from a standard
Knoppix 3.3 installed on hard disks?

Thanks,
Regards,
