I'm not berating people because of the Distro they Choose. Peolpe will choose what they like. What I'm trying to find is a way to convince the place where I work, to let me use Debian. These people are computer illiterate, They are like sheep. All they see in advertising is Red Hat, so they assume that it is the best. I don't want the Latest and greatest packages if I have to sacrifice stability. Debian is the most stable system I know, so that is what I want to use. My original question, is how do I convince them of what I already know? Wayne
