But I will definitely go back to Debian.
The book is a good idea, grab your book and your install disks and then just experiment. One of the great things about debian is it's package system, you can install or remove anything you like. Just look through dselect or apptitude and install whatever looks interesting. If you find you made a mistake, just remove it, or leave it there for another day. This stuff is all available to you, but I doubt you'll ever get around to it all. At least I haven't! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
