I don't find that "joke" funny. It's not offensive or anything, just the context is all messed up. > Or not! What do you think lol? I prefer Debian because more packages are well-maintained under main. Ubuntu provides good support for universe, I guess. But, the fact that Ubuntu feels those packages need to be separated just demonstrates that they are "second- class". Ubuntu LTS is my second choice, and something I recommend if it is likely that the user wants a commercial support contract. I find the package manager that Ubuntu shares with Debian to be enough of an advantage to put it above other solutions like RHEL or SLE(D/S). I am comfortable enough to use and maintain RHEL and SLE(S/D) in fairly simple environments, if the user has some specific need for one of those systems. That's rare, but is often related to third-party hardware or software being certified with one of those. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
