So, I have used Ubuntu forever and a day on my laptop because it "just works". That said my ears perked earlier this week at the announcement from mint going to debian and becoming a rolling release. I like and fear this rolling release thing but when it comes down to it I end up upgrading things via ppa or source anyway so it really is not that different. That all said I see with 10.10 ubuntu is going to have an "extras" repo which essentially accomplishes the same thing. So anyway what are your opinions on sticking to the devil I know and love or getting back closer to debian with mint -- James Finstrom Rhino Equipment Corp. http://rhinoequipment.com
