| you can use the handy apt-get util to get the extra's that you need.  
| 
| Please enjoy the ScreenShots below...

Distro Review: Debian Lenny

,----[ Quote ]
| Ok it’s time for another distro review and I’m a bit overdue with this one 
| but I’m a big fan of Debian and the dedicated community who develop it I make 
| no secret of that. When I reviewed Etch (4.0) last year I declared that if I 
| were to finally grow up and settle down with just one distro this would be 
| the one. I like the fact that it’s not backed by any commercial entity and 
| sticks closely to it’s Free Software principals. After some delay version 5.0 
| Lenny was finally released this Valentine’s Day, how appropriate but would it 
| still be true love? There was only one way to find out…

Debian 5.0 Continues Strong Linux Tradition

,----[ Quote ]
| Version 5 of the Debian GNU/Linux open-source operating system offers the
| same top management tools and processor support that previous versions of the
| Linux operating system have. There also are a host of updates to open-source
| components, and the Linux distribution is still a great fit for servers and a
| solid desktop choice. However, the top reason for upgrading from version 4
| may be the relatively short three-year security fix window, less than the
| coverage time offered with Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux-derived
| CentOS.

Debian Lenny: Returning Home to the Mothership

,----[ Quote ]
| Lenny looks and works just fine on my system, and it is noticeably peppier.
| Maybe that's from using the nv driver; whatever it is, screen redraws and
| moving windows do not have the lag that Kubuntu and Ubuntu do, and scrolling
| Web pages is smoother and faster.

Lenny lights up an old laptop

,----[ Quote ]
| With the Debian Linux project officially designating “Lenny” as its
| new “stable” distribution, I decided to install it on an old Thinkpad to see
| how well it performs on a low-end machine. Without doubt, the results
| surpassed my wildest expectations!

Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 codename Lenny

,----[ Quote ]
| Long-awaited “Lenny” has finally been out! After 22 months of development,
| Debian development team announced the official release of Debian GNU/Linux
| 5.0 on 14th of February as planned (well, at least in American Samoa, which
| happens to be located in UTC-11.) and the very same day I installed and
| tested it on my laptop.

| Having always been a Debian person at heart, I eagerly awaited the latest
| Debian version to hit the mirrors. When Lenny was released, I downloaded the
| DVD ISO through torrent and installed it.

Debian GNU/Linux 5.0

,----[ Quote ]
| The idea of a "universal operating system" that runs on just about any piece
| of hardware on the planet and is 100% modifiable, redistributable, and free
| of charge is a good one.
