    That's actually pretty funny. Personally, I won't use Meaty Meathead until KEdith 1.0 is realized. Too bad it's not compatible with Gloria, which is obviously a Gnome app.

    The title of this news article is a silly one- "Distro of the Year?" I am surprised it didn't incite a slap fight among the nerds that wish to advocate their Linux flavor of choice.
