Can anyone suggest a good Debian resource where i could
see the differences between Deb and Redhat? I've been
a redhat user for a few years now and am beginning to think
that Redhat is bloated and not very well integrated.
Debian and the BSD's have such a simple install/upgrade
mechanism, it brings a tear to my eye when i think about
how hard it is to upgrade my redhat machine using RPM's.
Check out Slackware as well. It's package system is simple and easy,
and if you REALLY can't live without apt-get, there are plenty working
slack-get type things. I was a Redhat user also, and I tried both
Debian and Slackware, but ended up going with Slackware.
I think www.distrowatch.com is a good site to see distro comparisons, by
the way (off the top of my head, may be distrowatch.org).
