Maybe you could elucidate and tell us what exactly Storm Linux hides? I have used Debian through several versions and Storm Linux more recently. Storm adds a few features which make Linux easier for the beginner or someone who just prefers a GUI interface. It offers an easier install and adds a bit of gloss to Debian. It removes nothing of a standard Debian install - all the usual command line utilities are available. You could install Storm and pretend it was Debian and you would be none the wiser once you had removed the Storm icons from the stndard KDE or Gnome desktop. I appreciate that some Linux users prefer a more difficult install accompanied by a steep learning curve so if you are one of these you will not like Storm Linux ;-) -- Phillip Deackes Using Storm Linux
