It works for me
by ictigers on Tue 6th Jan 2004 05:26 UTC

I have been using College Linux for a few weeks now, and I seem to like it. Even the theme. And I am just now getting into Linux Web Servers, so the Web Server Robot is a good tool to help get me started with Apache, PHP, and MySQL without having to worry so much about how to get everything configured. I can just concentrate on designing interative websites. And I used slapt-get to download the kernel source code, so slapt-get does work good for me as well.


I can understand you getting emotional about a review after putting in a lot of work on the project. But please post about clearing up some misconceptions in a more professional manner. So, yes I can understand how you felt about the review. But you don't need to let the whole world know it. Trust me, I have been in customer service for many years, and sometimes you just have to bite your tongue.

And you ought to read how Kevin Carmony(CEO of Lindows) replies to reviews(and peoples replies) about Lindows. He does it in a very professional manner, and beleive me Lindows takes a lot of heat sometimes but Kevin Carmony always replies in a very professional manner.

And thanks for creating College Linux. It is working for me and I am glad to be using it.
