Said Greg Folkert: > Stable is NOT "stability of the system"... STABLE means few if any > changes to the DISTRO.
Said : Andreas Janssen: > ... Sarge or Sid are usable for > desktop systems (at least many people use it, I use Woody with KDE 3), May I ask another newbie question? Are both of these statements accurate? They are not precisely the impression I get from this page: http://www.debian.org/releases/ but if sarge is a stable operating system for my desktop, then I imagine it might be smarter for me to install that, rather than woody. I am behind a NAT hardware firewall, so I presume some security issues may not be of tremendous concern to me. I am a complete Linux newbie and I am hoping to install Debian on a second machine, just as soon as I can purchase said machine. :) Any advice is appreciated.
