[CVALE] Debian or Ubuntu...

[Landon Blake]

Thank you Ian and Dennis for you comments. I guess I feel a little
disloyal when I think about switching to Ubunutu...But I Think I'm going
to give it a try. I'll relieve my guilt by making sure any contributions
I might make to Ubuntu are also made to Debian if possible.

I've been a debian user for years.  I switched to Ubuntu a while back
04 or 05, can't remember which - just before I started using my mac.
When I started using linux again, I went straight to ubuntu.  Easy to
install, always has current releases.  Looks and feels good and easy
to use.

I just upgraded to 7.04 yesterday.  It's to be officially release in
the next two weeks, or so I hear, but I wanted it now.  Upgrade was
fairly easy - a few hitches here and there, but nothing an apt-get
dist-upgrade from the command line couldn't fix.  :-)
