How can i start a debit card?

i%26#039;m really considering getting a debit card. probably from my bank. i guess it would be like checks but without the paper. i would mostly use it for online purchasing. my highest priority would be a new computer. i doubt my dad would let me use his credit card or use my moms since he pays for it all. i would even offer to pay them back if they did. i already have a savings and i would prefer not to take out all the needed money for a new computer. my brother was able to open a debit card and he%26#039;s 17. i%26#039;m 22 so i dont see where i would have a problem with signing papers or anything. how would i go about doing this? what do i need to ask the bank? i deal with huntington banks if anyone wants to know.
