One. Of course it would take ages for a release. :) The power of GNU/Linux distros (and other *nixes) lies - IMHO obviously - in the community of volunteers who keep it. Of course this is only possible thanks to it being open source, but if hell were to freeze over of microsoft were to open source Windows 7, you'd see a dramatic increase in 7's quality. Ever since XP SP3 i've began to tag Window OSes as tolerable (well except Vista, but that was a beta 7 anyway, management decisions over technical ones for you). Haven't tried 8 yet, too tablet for me. As for Debian, i've been a regular user for ages. I don't like the apparent ease and pointy-clickiness of Ubuntu and i count rant on about that OS. -- "On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
