    Yes, and no.  To the idealists, such as I1 on dal.net's #linux and Manoj
here it is an end system.  To most people, it is just like everything else, a
tool, nothing more, nothing less.

    Debian, as it stands, is end user ready.  It is also a stepping stone. 
Like all good tools it serves different purposes.  It all depends on the
user, doesn't it?
