Hence me saying "for those that know little of"... Also, in one of my
previous emails I mentioned that anyone even suggesting Debian to a
newbie should be taken out and shot... Debian is by no means a newbie
friendly distro, have you ever even tried installing it?
I admit that yes I did forget Mint, and I also left out Mandriva, but
then I also missed out distros like Sabayan, Gentoo, Puppy and DSL. At
one point or another people new to Linux have tried these, but I was
trying to pick out those that were in the very mainstream of Linux
distros that those not in the know were aware of.
