Hmmm, did not know this. I did hear however that a couple of the Debian
developers are now working for Storm. Unconfirmed and may be utter
crap.
Indeed; always room for improvement. I actually haven't had any trouble
so far. The storm-dialer thingy was a pain, but nothing serious =)
I haven't been following Debian for that long, but it appears to me that
Storm is Debian with a graphical installer, which in theory makes it
easier. However I don't like being told what packages I _need_ to be
installed. Easy easy enough to remove the packages later.
Storm have sorted out a fair few things around the desktop and it just
works. Cudos.

Hehe, this is no different from any other distro, commercials included.

Yeah, good luck =)
