Glad to hear it. I've been trying to get Linux installed for about 5 years,
and the only distribution I have looked at is Debian. Call me a masochist, but
I am lured by the idea of an OS that is rock-stable and easy to maintain and
update. If only it were easy to install, then Billy boy (not to mention redhat
and others) would all be looking for new jobs by now.

FWIW, I've ordered the Debian 2.2 set of 6 CDs from  http://www.cheeplinux.com
and have arranged a wife-free week in November for my next attempt. Right now,
I am in the preparatory stage of collecting as many hints, and as much
encouragement as possible. You might think I should be looking at redhat, but
that's just your opinion. Most people on this list seem to think that Debian
is worth perservering with.

The purpose of my post was to thank Randy for pointing me at a good article,
and to make a serious suggestion about a t-shirt design. We geeks like cool
t-shirts, and the fact that the Debian chicken is such a long-lived animal
suggests to me that he deserves to be immortalized for posterity. If I could
draw, I wouldn't be asking for help here.
