Re: On Debian, currently.
Mike,
(and everyone on the list)Sorry for the "me too" letter, but I have to
give my kudos to the entire Debian community. Having used Linux since
1991 on a 386sx 16 with kernel build .99, and having tried Slackware,
Redhat, Caldera, Turbo Linux, and lastly Debian, I must echo James's
sentiments that Debian is by far the superior distribution. You will
definitely not be disappointed.
