As for choice, I don't have a problem with choice, I have a problem with people who think that because SUSE isn't going to take 3 days to install, and then need two security updates a day, and because it uses a GOOD installer and system like YAST that for some reason you'd need another distro to learn "The command line"....
Wahoo! I have no been on this list long enough to see a real paradigm shift... When I started on the there were many many many bitches about Yast2 Now known as Yast.. It seemed no one liked Yast 2 for anything , many actually hated it.. Yast (1) was the only way to got etc. etc. etc. BTW to O.P. Setting up SSH and running X on another box is easy way to do admin. on another computer, your kids, mum, wife , husband ... anyone who is on your net especially... saves a lot of steps when you want to to Y(ast)O(nline)U(pdates) or maybe you want to keep an eye on where the kids go online ( You should, unless they are of adult age, keep and eye on that, just for safety sake. ) <snip> -- j "It's my job to be worried half to death And that's the thing people respect in me" (song lyric)
