Agreed. I have put it on 4 different machines now. Meant to try Debian
but haven't had any reason to change yet.

Ubuntu is Debian+, FWIW.

Right, I know that. I was thinking Debian might have more current
versions of the various apps, because Ubuntu seems to err on the
"safe/works" side. Most of the time, that is - I still haven't upgraded
past 10.04 because of the video issues I discovered when doing so (no
longer pertinent to me because I don't have a computer with Intel video
anymore) and 10.04 is supposedly the "LTS" release so I don't "need" to
upgrade for a couple years yet. I started w/ Ubuntu on 9.04 and while
the software was more current for 9.10 and 10.04, 9.04 was actually the
least problematic distro that I've used.

If 12.04 continues the downward spiral, that might be when I give Debian
a try.

Had problems with Ubuntu connecting to some servers at the office.
Mostly Windows based. Seems to have been a bug with Ubuntu and it may
well be fixed by now. At the time, tried Fedora and no problems. I was
pretty familliar with RedHat anyway.

Issues that I have using Linux at the office is that I prefer to develop
with VS, especially for embedded/Qt devices rather than Eclipse and I
prefer to use TortoiseSVN to manage my SubVersion VCS rather than either
the command line Linux one or the one you can install in Eclipse.

It's funny, I nearly didn't take this job when I found out that it was a
windows shop. I guess I got used to it.

I have machines here running Lenny, Etch, Sarge, Woody, and Potato.

You guys probably think the Arizona Shooter was a right-winger, too.

Turns out the guy had a helluva lot more in common with Chalo (9-11 Truther,
Bush Derangement Syndrome, far left reading material, drug use, etc. etc.)
than any Tea Partier.

Bowling for Columbine. I know it probably bugs the crap out of you to
even ponder Michael Moore's work, but you gotta open you mind long
enough to catch that Nichols guy in the early part saying, with a
straight face, "There are *crazy* people out there."

Oh, so We The Living and My Struggle are progressive tomes now, eh?
LMFAO

What's funny is that everyone of you radical righties got the memo and
are trying this exact same lie of omission. It gets old, and reflects
poorly on your intellect--though most of us did lose any respect for
your dittohead politics long long ago.
