Desktop Distros

,----[ Quote ]
| My choices of Distro were based on what are commonly known as the big Boys, 
| the distros which seem to appear on most magazine covers, and distro watch to 
| 10 the most often, I do find both Fedora and Opensuse lacking in that final 
| quality to make them good desktop distros, and when running fedora seemed 
| clunky some times, i couldn’t put my finger on what, even with its new 
| themes, it still seemed to be the granddaddy of the pack.     
| 
| sabayon amazed me, 100% working out of the box, remember this was my result, 
| yours may not be the same. the only downside of sabayon is its sourced based, 
| which may lead to a steeper learning curve, however with so much working out 
| of the box, you won’t have to install much to start with anyway.

Do we really need another packaging system?

,----[ Quote ]
| The reality of the situation is that the differences between distros gives
| people a chance to innovate more with how a Linux system works. Trying to
| funnel everything down through some common layer at the bottom really reduces
| the chances for big innovation to happen.

Why Having 500+ Distros is a Good Thing

,----[ Quote ]
| Perhaps next time the author might think about what they're
| saying...because limiting the number of distros out there is
| absolutely NOT the way to go to accomplish anything other
| than limiting innovation.
