i'm a new linux user, though i am very good at windows, especially starcraft. i tried to install debain but i couldn't get my usb peripherals to work, which made it really hard. so i decided to install mandrake and got it working in about 30 minutes. i would really like to use debain because my 17yo brother (who is doing his 1st year in computer science ay uni) said that it was the most 133t distro, so i changed/etc/issue on my mandrake box to say "debain" and made a symlink from/usr/bin/urpmi to/usr/bin/apt-get. now it feels like i am finally running debain! i am so much happier now with my new, more stable and secure "box", because haXX0rs will haX0r my box and see that i am running plebian and not haX0r me because they will know that i am l33t! thank you.
