A non-commercial distribution of Linux. It is extremely comprehensive (7 CDs worth of Good Stuff), cheap (SEK 198 or NZD 45 for the CD version; Debian is too big to download as a practical matter), and committed to distributing stable rather than cutting-edge versions. Not recommended for laptop installs, though. -- John Cowan jcowan@reutershealth.com www.ccil.org/~cowan www.reutershealth.com "If I have not seen as far as others, it is because giants were standing on my shoulders." --Hal Abelson
