Hello, I'm starting in linux I used Ubuntu and didn't like it and I
have read that many people that used Debian had a better
experience, I have a MacBook Pro 4GB ram/ 500HDD/Intel HD 3000/ i5
2nd generation, can it run Debian?. Also, I want to know what
version of Debian to download, I saw something about DVD1, DVD2...
You can always choose net install so it is minimal. Then you can
download everything else. I assume internet is fast in your location.
Depends on what you consider to be 'fast'. Is 120K/s fast?
Compared to what?
I recall loading the OS from paper tape. We *DID* have a high
speed reader after all <GRIN>
More seriously use https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/ to select
an appropriate vendor. I originally did that because all the
connectivity I had was a 56k dial-up line. I'm now have selected
a cell network based service with low data cap. For my peculiar
personal usage I find it reasonable to pay for the convenience of
a complete set of DVD's once per major release (will order Jessie
soon ;)
