Well, I don't think debian is "rougher around the edges" than any other
distro, it's more polished if anything. The installers just a little
plain.

I think the last decent distribution RH put out was 5.2
SuSE got that damn YaST thing, which I depsise ...
rpm is horrid, so any distro using that isn't worth looking at to me
Slack is OK for a personal computer

Debian is the biggest and the best! Debian vs RH is like Godzilla vs
Bambi ... :-)
