What I don't like about Debian: (not trying to start a flame war,
honestly!!)

1. It's out of date
2. I don't like apt
3. It's out of date
4. It runs 2.0.*

I like the idea of Debian; and when potato comes out I'll give that a go,
but I'm afraid I like 2.2.* kernels too much ;) I don't want to get slink
and have to keep patching it, etc.

Of course, this is all personal preference: I don't particularly go around
recommending distributions, unless you're a first-timer, in which case
it's usually Corel, COL, Mandrake or SuSE. I'm just glad there's choice ;)

Cheers,

Alex.
