People envy the US for its wealthy and prosperity.
How deluded you truly are, mostly the rest of world are rather bemused why so many Americans keep buying in to this "we are number one!" crap.
<- long list of left-biased anti-US references snipped -> The proof is in the pudding: People have been (literally) dying to immigrate to the US since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution (and still are). This is just a simple fact. Also, any group, be it a sporting team, a tribe, a town, or a nation all hype themselves up to be Number One. It's probably a genetic thing. The US is so routinely bashed for everything it does, and is, including bashing done by its own citizens and media, that they've grown quite used to it. Would that the current wave of illegal immigrants believe the left-biased accounts of the US and stay home! Now, why can't this discussion be dropped? It's discourteous to our list host and doesn't serve any purpose. Why not discuss how Linux and SuSE are "Number One"?! SuSE content: I have a "dedicated host" running SuSE 9.1 that serves web pages and mailing lists. Since support for 9.1 ends this month I'm going to have to move to a new host, upgrading is not economically feasible in this case. I found a new provider who will install any Linux distro that's available as an ISO. I'm comfortable with 10.0, having installed it on servers and desktops, but I'm not sure about 10.1. What to you folks think? This would be installed on a host where I don't have console access. Security updating is an important requirement, I don't want to have to maintain all the packages independently. 10.0 or 10.1? Final answer?
