How is it pronounced? Like "Ne 2 6" ? or "Net Wozix" ?

Another distro. I only have so much time, people, to keep trying all these new distros. STOP IT!!!

Who many times can I reformat a HD before I do something that totally destroys it? (No, not by installing distros, by smashing the HD in frustration after something goes arwy.)

  I wish there was a way to flush all Slashdot articles that contain both the word "linux" and "distribution".
  
  If I haven't already heard it's name enough times to already know it is a distribution (e.g. Debian, Gentoo, Knoppix, Redhat, and Mandrake) then I don't WANT to hear any news about it until it has proven itself to be a major contender. It can do that just fine on somewhere other than Slashdot; there is no reason we need early news about it here.
