<br>would install Linux on a PC someone gave me. So I checked the<br>Internet using my daughter's Mac and found a list of people who were<br>giving away Linux. One just happened to live a few blocks away and he<br>put my HD into his PC and copied Debian Linux to my HD.
<br><br>What I thought was wrong was Ubuntu, with it's financial backing,<br>basing itself on Debian without becoming part of Debian. This weakens<br>Debian. Couldn't they have merged with Debian instead? Ubuntu seems
<br>to now be the most popular distribution and I might be better off if I<br>switched to it. But Debian might be better off if I stayed with it<br>since I email them a lot of bug reports. Furthermore, they have<br>someone supporting the LinuxDoc markup (linuxdoc-tools package), which
<br>I don't think any other distribution does and I've written a HOWTO<br>on it. So for better or worse I plan to stick with Debian.<br><br> David Lawyer<br><br><br>End of SGVLUG Digest, Vol 120, Issue 3
