Re: distributions: UBUNTU vs DEBIAN



Jon

My question was/is genuine. It's not my intention to start a flamewar.
However, I will search thru the archives for past opinions/suggestions. I
apprecaite your response.

I am new to LINUX and somewhat dismaid/confused about the various
distributions. I'd like to set up a LINUX-based server for mail, web,
personal commerce, etc. Since this is for personal purposes, I decided on
LINUX based system because [1]it's free and [2]my perceived notion that
it's more stable than windows environment.

Being new to LINUX, a GUI-based system like GNOME adds some convenience
but ultimately is not necessary. BASH command line-based system is
sufficient. I [initially] chose UNBUNTU simply because it was handed to me
to try out. After a couple of weeks of playing around, I discovered a
wealth of information as well as 'choices'.
