impressed with etch
Hello list, tried out the snapshot from 02/07/06 yesterday on my test drive (after finally wiping my last Windows install off it) and must say I'm very impressed ! Made great strides since sarge and feels much more up to date - and a lovely splash as well (sorry to be so vain). The only problem I noticed in these few hours of testing was that the network lost my dhcp setup and thus I was unable to connect to the net and download and fill in the 'after install bugreport' or whatever it's called. I'll wait for when it's stable, but it's highly likely that I'll replace the Breezy Badger on two machines when it's come up to it's end of support early next year and go back to Debian. 2 thumbs up, and thanks.

Sorry to be dense, but what's a Breezy Badger? It is the name of one of the releases of the Ubuntu distribution.
