Comments/Problems:

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>
     
The installation was the easiest so far of several distros I have tried.  The only difficulty I had was being unable to connect to the internet when I installed by disk with no live connection.   However, when I went to an internet cafe and plugged into the ethernet connection, and re-installed with internet access in about half an hour, all was well.   Easy, Quick and Satisfying.   My old IBM Thinkpad 600x with a pentium III 500mz processor and a 12 gig hard drive runs much faster and better with Debian GNU than it did with the original OS....Windows 98,   In addition, I am impressed with the successful installation and use of a much wider selection of optional software programs too.  Thanks to all those who worked so hard to make a great os.
