Conectiva Linux 7.0 Review

Conectiva Linux was the first distribution to support APT-RPM, which cures most of the ails of typical RPMs. Their latest release even bundles a graphical front-end to APT, and brings the worlds of Debian and Red Hat together."

    Conectiva Linux was the first distribution to support APT-RPM

    I would've though there'd be some sort of matter/antimatter explosion when apt and rpm came together judging by the flamewars I've seen....

    How many applications is bundled with this distribution ?
    If there are less than 7000 programs you shouldn't buy it ;-)
