Why GNU/Linux for academics and why Debian in particular?
,----[ Quote ]
| While this is not exhaustive these are some of
| the reasons why I choose GNU/Linux and Debian.
| So why not Ubuntu you ask? Well in my opinion,
| itâs buggier, because they release too often
| and I donât really trust Canonical and Mark
| Shuttleworth. I see Mark as a little bit of a
| leech on Debian and while I think Ubuntu has
| contributed to Debian and upstream projects,
| it still seems meager compared to how much
| theyâve benefited. Debianâs slow release cycle
| also means you donât have to update as often
| and you get a release that is more stable. All
| Ubuntu does is add some frosting on the cake
| and that frosting looks more and more like Mac
| OS X.
