Hi,
Read all the responses to "Why debian".
My summary:
1. It is free, w/o any non-free components.
2. It can be easily updated and upgraded.
My questions:
1. Is it free because it is not popular? If its user base keep growings, will there not be a temptation to commercialise it? That's how many 'free' software end up.
2. Can I use it on a business basis? E.g. get a hardware platform, load in Debian plus some necessary packages and sell the integrated system, subsequently, provide regular support and service. Is Debian reliable enough for this purpose? Has it been done by others?
Cheers
Ken
