nah, i'm really not a pig. promise. well, i try not to be anyways; no promises. i'm more bitter than bukowski. haha

yah, that explains why i didn't give it much of a chance. RPM distros and i never get along well.

..ew. EW. wait. you mean to tell me they put an aptitude/DEB overlay...over RPM?
i'm going to be sick.

Why limit it to meetings?  :)

Be proud of whatever it is you are.

One or two back it was rpm, which ruled it out for me.  I read that it
had Synaptic, so I figured I'd try.  Turns out it's still RPMs, much to
my dismay.


They have a very interesting ad on their page, btw.  Someone is selling
refurbed IBM 900MHz machines with a FP and PCLOS installed for $150
+shipping.  I just got done telling someone that the $199 Walmart
machine was not going to be a bargain - they might do better with a 2nd
hand pc and liux.  What timing.
