Recent commentsThis is great :]
I personally run this distribution of Linux and find it great. I'm wary of repartitioning my harddrive to put Linux (had a bad experience with installing RedHat 4.2). Only problems I've had with this were compiling Perl5 (keep gettting out of memory errors) and Netscape just won't run. Otherwise I love it.
