Greetings Debian
Community!
I am currently a computer networking
student
researching different flavours of Unix/Linux. From the advice of
my
instructor, I have shosen to research Debian. He says it's,
"Really
Cool" I find it very appealing and hope to install it as soon as
my system
is set up.
I have a few specific questions I'd
like to
ask. The information on your webpage and FAQ is simply so immense,
a
simple site search is a bit confusing.
1. What is the user base
targeted? Is it
simply geared towards the home-user looking for a free OS? Or is
it geared
more towards the power-user?
2. Where is Debian located? I
understand
there are over 800 distrubuters nationwide that communicate via e-mail
and
message boards. But is there a specific "home" to
debian?
3. What is the latest Kernel
version?
4. What is the default desktop?
and what
others are included?
5. What, if any, office suites are
included?
Thank You very much and I look forward
to joining
the wonderful world of open source OS!
