I just wanted to point out as well for you as for the people reading on 
this list from all over the world, that such a young distribution can 
present a few defects, and still not deserve to be put down. You can 
notice we still have a very very good product, can learn from it at same 
time we use, and helps greatly the migration.
I started under another distro and got many difficulties when I started 
to wish to install newer applications, because of the dependancies (I 
kept it three months and a geek had pity on me and helped me install 
Debian testing, that I kept again a few months). Now I run multiboot 
with three OS'es, and learn more and more, little by little.
Let's also remember computing itself is a very young topic: less than 
100 years old yet.
Best greetings, J.Markoll.
