Before I found debian I tried Slackware (3.6 on a 486), Caldera, various versions of mandrake, Connectiva, Redhat, and a few other distros that I dont even remember. Every single time I would go in with the intention of finally switching from windows but would go back within a few days in disgust. I think the other distros make a good first impression with their fancy installers but then get progressively worse. Debian makes a bad (in some opinions, I personally think its quite nice) first impression but once you have muddled through the first few days it just keeps on getting better and better. As I mentioned before I've been using it for about a year now and I still find at least one new cool thing about it every few days that I didn't know about. Its great. > If I may give you an > advice from my ignorance. YOU are the ferst one who cares for what > you are lerning, what is really amazing from my point of view.

Maybe I will eventually try Gentoo... But not until I get a new drive, I wouldnt want to take out my debian system for that.. On the other hand, I also have a dusty install of Windows XP taking up space.... :) cheers, leo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
