I used to worry about an update breaking things. Now I use it as my go to Linux on laptops, and have successfully upgraded, using their instructions for CLI updates, with no problems. I do use openbox and dwm (which I install from source) rather than Gnome, which might have something to do with my painless updates. Not to say it's a good server OS (though not saying it isn't, I don't have enough knowledge of it in that situation to say), but it's not the always on the edge of breaking that it used to be. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6
