[user] I wanted to switch to Linux for a long time. Always had Debian in mind (because of their FOSS attitude and community), then I asked a friend of mine to help me migrate. He was a Gentoo user and offered to install that...was ok for me, it was just for testing. So now I am stuck. Why I stayed? Because of help available, because of the command line integration that is better than others I know (I even liked the MS DOS command line better than Windows 3.11), because of portage (despite all its short-comings). And now because of the fun with the x86 project. V-Li -- Fingerprint: 68C5 D381 B69A A777 6A91 E999 350A AD7C 2B85 9DE3 http://www.gnupg.org/ -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
