Old Linux versions are not yesterday's paper. that's what I like about
them. I can still run the latest KDE snapshot of RedHat 5.0 if I
choose. I upgraded my main machine at home to Mandrake 7.0 and I curse
that day because it broke a lot of my delicate configurations without
always leaving a .rpmorig file. I was happy enough with the older one.

the only problem are the big jumps, like glibc and a.out to ELF. that's
why Debian is no longer a choice for me, and may never be again.
