[...] > Nope.. nope.. there aren't too many architectures! You're right. Just to chime in, not saying that maintaining a consistent state between architectures is an easy thing and presents no problems, but Debian is the only distribution that supports all these many architectures. This has the *HUGE* benefit of making the life of those of us who actually run quite a few different architectures, to have the same distribution on all our machines. So, from my point of view, there aren't too many architectures. Actually, the fact that Debian runs on so many architectures is in the top five reasons I'm a Debian user. -- Gergely Nagy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
