It's a flavor of Linux? This survey seems half-assed....

  > It's a flavor of Linux? That doesn't disqualify it from being an operating system.

    It's not an operating system, it's a distribution of software other people wrote that comprises an operating system. It's not even an original distribution of Linux at that, it's just downstream Debian plus some crappy GUI apps. --- Ubuntu user

      Yup, it's a Debian derivative, but I like how light weight it was and how easy it is to get it going from the liveCD. I'm still on the last LTS, so haven't experienced the non-Gnome version yet.

        You think Ubuntu is light-weight? ...what?
        • jcitme 15y ago
          Fitting on a CD passes for lightweight nowadays...

          It doesn't use much disk, CPU, or brainpower.
