I haven't touched Debian in a while

1> Same experience as Llama - baisc Debian failed to install on my
hardware (X was too old)

2> Reading the writeups about Libranet, etc., I always came to the
conclusion that the package offerings were too damn old.

3> What's the current status?  Is Libranet anywhere near current with
respect to kde, gnome, mozilla, etc.?

4> When I tried lycoris in the Redmond Linux days, I couldn't stand
the patchwork kde screens with half the stuff missing.  If I'm going
to use kde, I want it to look like kde, thank you very much.  It was
quite an easy install even back then.

5> Not that I'm really looking.  I'm quite happy with my "collinstoo"
distro, as Skippy calls it.
