RE: [OT, FLAME] Linux Sucks
G'day Larry,
I'm surprised to hear that. I'm a relative newbie to linux and chose debian
cause the others tend to dictate what u can & can't install and often (on
the systems i've tried) stuff up whereas debian allows you to choose what &
how it's installed but stops you from stuffing it up, so it runs (well,
after all the installs i've done so far) after the install.
cheers,
Lindsay

| I don't condone the outburst, and am not fully tuned

|
| I must say, however, that compared to a number of
| other systems I've worked with, Debian is difficult to
| get installed and configured. I suspect the poor
| fellow was ready to tear his hair out (assuming he had
| some hair).
|
| On the other hand, I've found the system to function
| extrememly well, and be marvilously stable. Once
| installed, it is easy to upgrade and install
| applications on. So the big hump, unfortunately, is
| at the very beginning.
