Re: [OT] Recent increases in d-u posts?



    Damon,

I think it's the redhat upgrade to 7.0! heeheehee.

Also, it could be that so many books are hitting the shelves about linux
and linux+pure=debian.

Linux in school is also exposing this distro to the next generation.

Microsoft STILL wants money for that thingy they sell.

Gosh, this is without actually committing any real thought to the matter :)
