(...) Your arguments fit perfect as a demostration of my key point that an OS installation is neither a money nor "I-want-a-bigger-room" related problem but a user attitude. I wonder what would you do should you have to live the 365 days of the year with no Internet connection (like many newbie linux -Debian- users in the world do) or simply with a dial-up line from where to send/receive e-mails no larger that 3 MiB and no web browsing at all. This people can tell you what are *real* limitations yet still they are interested in having Debian systems installed, up and running. That's an enviable attitude.
