I voted Debian...
by Nathan O. on Sun 25th May 2003 09:38 UTC

I voted Debian, but its only saving grace for me was Knoppix. I tried to install Debian, and it was just too much to bother with. Knoppix? Run a script from within KDE, running off CD. A few simple questions.

Also, RE: Clarification about OSNews' readers, I wouldn't be too certain that all that many readers are developers. Geeks, yes, but I, for example, found this web site when I was just entering the whole Linux deal. If I voted last year (don't remember), it was for Red Hat. I would at that time have been convinced that it was the right choice, but since I became the least bit familiar with Linux, my vote has changed a few times. Had I even given Mandrake a try at the time, I'da voted for it.

But now there's Knoppix ;)
