Re: ODP: Debian chicken (was: Article: Debian's Daunting Installation)



i think i missed the storm.  anyway, i read that article about Debian not
being user-friendly but who says user-friendliness is Debian's topmost
priority?  Randy should have read Debian's social contract first.  if anyone
wants a friendly Debian distro they should try Storm Linux.

my 2cents.
