7, yes... but...

I'm a fan of Windows 7, since it seems to be a big improvement over Vista, and is what Microsoft should have released in the first place. I feel that it does a much better job of getting out of the way, which is not something MS is famous for. Having said that, I've played with it, enjoyed it, but find myself spending most of my time using my Debian boxes, one with an actual Debian server, the other with both Debian testing and Ubuntu installed. I generally use Debian, but do enjoy an occasional foray in the the South African savanna... Debian has been my tried and true friend through many years of experimentation with Linux, and has, for the most part, been quite dependable. However, Ubuntu has a great deal going for it, especially in the user interface department. Recently I have seen Debian improving in that regard. Their website was recently revamped, and they have many more themes and graphic goodies than in their dark past. Not that that's the be all, end all, but it is nice to boot to something attractive. Anyway, just some random thoughts about my recent junkets in LinuxLand.
