For a relative Linux tyro like me, the Debian PPC learning curve on the install and configuration was a bit flat (particularly for a laptop install). Partition scheme, yaboot config, and some of the GNOME/KDE package dependencies, among others. That being said, it's a terrific Debian version once you get things nailed down. I wasn't sure what to expect vs. my experience with the x86 Debian, but I'm impressed. You Deb PPC folks rock. Steve
