Amen!  I had Debian 2.1 installed for a couple of months, but I got rid
of it and moved on to RH6.0 after I got fed up with too many uninstalled
or half-installed packages.  apt-get was cool, though, once I figured
out how it wanted to be configured.

I just quit my job and my boss said "go ahead and keep all that
hardware" (!).  So now I have four extra machines I can install on, and
I need to decide on a distro for them.  Anybody have a copy of the
Oracle 8 CD I can borrow (now that I can pitch NT out of the house!)?

Cheers!
