Didn't know this thread was poll-ish. I use/administer/whatever 100 machines at the moment: 11 run linux, the other 1 (my laptop) runs windows while still in warranty (and because in a realistic world i have to deal with Microsoft Office, although i've heard its 2003 version runs well in WINE). Of the 11 linux boxes: * 1 is my desktop which currently runs Whezzy with care taken every time i issue an apt-get install. This machine's been mostly for testing as some of its drives don't play along with the mobo's BIOS so i'll have to postpone ZFS for the moment and stick to RAID5 once i replace those drives. Later it'll be my home server. * Another 1 is a VPS, running Debian stable. * The other 1 is my work laptop which soon will run some other linux instead of the current ubuntu (which i dislike).
I've been a regular user for probably around 10 years, alergic to behemoth DEs, not alergic to CLI or compiling stuff from source when even Sid is way behind, considering Slackware, Gentoo and/or LFS to try out new stuff, learn stuff and find good replacements for Debian (i'm not a distro-hoper, but that will very likely change). Yes, Devuan will be on that list. :) I'm also considering OpenBSD and OpenIndiana, assuming i have time to tinker. I have a lot of curiosity and too little time, but i'll help if i can. I'm here because i want choice and i like stuff to be modular and open, not closed and monolithic (unless we're talking about Clarke's 2001).
