        I've been running Mandrake(rpm based) for a while now, and i like
it pretty well. But i just got a used laptop(dell cpx), and i'm thinking of
trying Debian via Knoppix on it.
        By way of a Manrake distribution(8.x) i have IBM speech recognition
as an .rpm. Can Debian/apt work and play nice with rpm's? Can rpm's be
converted into something apt will work with?
        (if the answer is RTFM that's fine, as long as i get a pointer to
the proper FM)
