Also, you can run apt-proxy in debian to run your own server. You can even
make a server that just has .debs that you like.
You can use apt-spy to check all servers in the world and find the fastest
one for you.
If someone out there would make a mirror for apt-rpm, it would help.
apt-rpm is really slow. It is nice, though. The animations (due to a flag
in rpm) is nicer than apts (scrolling #s).
Also, sometimes things are updated faster in apt-rpm, but not always, and
they don't have the sw that one needs all the time. I like it b/c I like
apt, though.
