Sigh. You know you're getting old when you start hearing people
describe Debian as "Ubuntu, but without the fancy live CD installer".

He's right about the packages though; the Debian tree is seriously
huge, in a massively scary kind of way. I think even the ever-popular
RPM-lovin' world of Red Hat would have a problem matching Debian's
software base.

Incidentally, re: Handover's subject title, "Polishing the Penguin",
sounds a little too much like a euphemism for something rather
... ahem ... rude ;=>
