Hi Neil, I'm along time Debian user (7 years) and if there was something
wrong with Mepis I would not suggest you trying it, saying that, Mepis
has one click tools that Debian don't have, like it will repair grub for
you with a click or reinstall a working x-configuration for you with a
click, install and save /home with a click, add and remove users with a
click, check file-systems with a click, the list goes on... Sure these
things can be done without "One Click Linux", but why?
One day the "Debian Live CD Project" may create such a live cd but not
today. :)
I do love Debian, even as frustrating as it may be at times. I would
hope one of the projects goals is to make using it easier and easier
with each release. I do agree with Jimmy, what is wrong with "One Click
Linux"? Being able to prove that your above it? Regardless those in the
know would be able to tinker away to their hearts desire, while
defaulting to and making available an easier generally user wide system.
Sometimes I'm reminded of the scene in Indiana Jones when Jones is faced
with the sword carrying-spinning-putting on a huge show enemy, Jones
stands there for a second in appreciation of this mans skill, pulls out
a pistol, shoots him then moves on.
I'd love to see some of these tools make it to Debian.
