I do not think debian-testing-xxx-kde-CD-1.iso is for higher end and debian-testing-xfce-CD-1.iso is for lower end. It's more like the former installs KDE by default and the later installs xfce by default. I searched for an official page (in http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/) confirming this, but could not find any info. May be others will provide a more authoritative answer. Regarding debian-testing-xxx-netinst.iso, there is more info at http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#netinst . Essentially it gives a basic system by downloading as little as 180 MB. Afterwards users can download the software from the internet as and when the need arises. > Sounds like I'm staying with KDE! :-) > Well, that gives you a starting point. Once you acclimatize yourself with Debian, you can (and should) experiment with other DEs (Desktop Environments) and choose one that you like. hth raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
