But this didn't have Andre's IDE patch, which is needed for certain IDE
controllers (anything with ATA 133 simply doesn't work without it, for
example..)
It shouldn't take a Debian developer of four years now more than six hours
to get a base system installed on a desktop machine.

Granted, Win95's look wasn't all that new either - Apple tried to sue
Microsoft for copying the Macintosh UI / trash can icon, until Microsoft
pointed out that Apple got many of its Mac ideas (including the trash can
icon) from Xerox ParcPlace. Xerox is probably still wondering why
everyone is interested in their trash cans.
