On 12-JAN-00, someone wrote: Debian is nice for someone already familiar with it. The only real problem it has for advanced users is that the last "stable" version is so outdated that I wouldn't use it for anything. Time for a new stable version... Not that the "unstable" version is as unstable as it claims... Oh, and they could be a little less paranoid about licenses. KDE should go to the main distrib.

On 28-OCT-99, Nick Busigin wrote: I've been using Debian for quite a while. Before and during this time, I have also installed RedHat, Slackware and Caldera distributions. I find Debian to be head and shoulders above the rest. It is very evident that the Debian developers have put in a lot of work to make their packaging system the best one I've used and their attention to out-of-the-box security is very commendable.
