No, he was right, it SEEMS easier and sexier. I'm not saying it's a bad
product, but it's not especially good or anything. Of course it's hard to
be objective about it, but at least I don't feel it is any better than
OpenSuse or Mandriva. You'll have a hard time come up with actual *proof*
that the *buntus are any better - at anything.

Sure, they make a lot of noise, but that doesn't mean they're good. They
fact they have better marketing doesn't mean their product is better. It
just means their marketing is better.

It might seem you fixed it but in fact you broke it. Somehow unsurprising.
