Linux During the majority of my time working with computers, Windows was the operating system of choice. Reason being, it's all I've known. In 2002, I took a college course titled "Linux Administration" which entitled me to a few cd-roms of Redhat 7.x. While this course was nothing more than a few extra credits for me, I fell in love with Linux and went through the entire textbook a week into the class. It was a nice feeling to use something "different" than what I was used to.

"True Debian apt-get is the way forward"

Well, possibly, once it gets fixed. RPM handles upgrading to a new release better. Nothing like typing "apt-get install kde" after changing your apt repository and watching your system get uninstalled. Not a troll, just my experience. For all I know I did something wrong, but it is repeatable even after following all steps/directions in the documentation.
