Seems like you're a bright guy, would love to have you stay on the list... often there is "buzz" around a particular distro but that stuff comes and goes... i started using Linux on Caldera OpenLinux and later switched to debian because I thought it was more "official" as GNU targeted it... now it seems that Torvalds targets SuSE. Another major reason i chose debian was that it was famed for it's user list support ... it seems I have seen a decline in participation of "experts" in the last few years - but I don't monitor the list all of the time. sure i get frustrated when i post a question and it gets ignored - or when i see i question i think i can answer and then i find out i don't know as much as i would like, but the benefits of sticking with debian have outweighed the negatives of "playing around" with other OS's .. in fact if I really wanted to try something else it would be BSD ... maybe I gave you something to think about here - maybe not - but i figured i'd chime in. ---------- Shawn Lamson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
