This is the second in my series of reviews for debian-based commercial distros that might be appropriate for SOHO use. The first article covered my exploration of Lindows, and this one is focused on Libranet. Before I get started with Libranet I want to clarify a couple of points.

The subjective ratings and the subsequent justification - "it's my computer, so my rating system," make this article thoroughly ungeneralizable. This isn't a "review" - it's a journal of one person's very specific experience. While that doesn't make it a bad article, or even a bad read, it does make it pretty irrelevant for me, because his problems are so system-specific that it doesn't tell me anything about the distro that I care to know.
Honestly, the only people that might find this interesting are those who have done their own shootouts or those who have the exact same hardware. Otherwise, little here may apply to you.
If a group of people were all testing out the same stuff on the same hardware, then the subjective ratings would be interesting. In fact, I'd LOVE to see *that* piece.
