161075 2003-07-19 08:23:00 I thought that was one of the key features of Debian. You install the latest stuff at the time of install. -=JM=- (16)
161076 2003-07-19 11:23:00 It also includes source for the latest Kernel :-)

Im thinking of buying it for that... more than Debian :D

161077 2003-07-20 02:42:00 I've got it. APC is the magazine for OSs on CDs. I've had multiple RedHat, other Linices, Mandrake 8, Mandrake 9 for X-Box, Beos, OS/2 Warp 4 ...

I'll probably install that debian for a look. :D The whole thing is there, but it's like Mandrake and wants to call home for updates at the end of the installation. You just say no. :D
