New Should we just rename this forum
to "Debian" and be done with it?

Sheesh. When presented with a lack of options, Linux users really *do* eat their own. :)

New Missing the point.
General Linux questions and discussion.

However, when presented with distro advocacy (notice who started this particular subthread) people will respond.

This is no different than discussing Win 95 vs. Win 2000 in the Windows forum. People invariably say, "2000 is better"... but we aren't renaming that forum "The Windows 2K Forum". ;-)

I just thought it was kinda funny, is all.

Edited to add, after looking at my original post, it might have looked more the way I intended if I had taken out the word "sheesh".

...this is my first foray into Debian.

so far my opinion is apt is easier than rpm and that the debian standard install is painful.

I believe that is all I have said so far.
