I was probably not here when you guys had the manditory
SUSE/RedHat/Debian/Slackware/etc war/crusade/rant...
So, just what is so good (and bad) about everyone's chosen distro?
And, in fact, consider this a war for a follower...I killed noodles the
other week, but have been too busy with my main machine, shaitan to give
it a thought.
Noodles is a P75 with a stonking 12Mb of RAM, and about 800Mb across 2
drives. It wants your chosen distro. Oh, yes.
Noodles does sod all. Well, it runs a distributed.net client and has
managed to stay up for 100 days (had to move home, or it would have been
longer), and gets ssh'd to now and again so I can laugh at the uptime
and waggle my finger at any Windows machine :-)
Currently, debian seems to be in the lead, if I'm not to stick with
RH6.2 - because they've got that fancy swirly logo thingy.
There ya go - that's generally how I choose distros. MMMmm...nice
logo....oooo!
I await the wisdom of ShefLUG!
