A story on NewsForge poses the question, "is Debian the right system for a hacker?": http://newsvac.newsforge.com/newsvac/02/06/28/2219224.shtml The story also notes, "there is a certain coolness and mystique associated with Debian". For the record, I like Debian pretty well and am using it on a "production" web server that runs (and runs) in my basement but, just as other distros all seem to have a few sore points, I know that Debian is not perfect. -- Joel Schneider Jazz - jazz88fm.com joel at joelschneider.net ISEE - www.i-see.org
