@zykotick9 Comparisons are valid considering Ubuntu is *based on* Debian. Ubuntu is not Debian though, as some people like to imply -

@losinggeneration ubuntu: taking !debian's freedom and turning it into shackles - since 2004. -

@zykotick9 Beside that fact Debian was the OS you can install with only pressing Enter, right? ;) -

@lechindianer actually netinstall does require an arrow (to confirm yes on partition creation) ;) -

@zykotick9 While not entirely unfair, I do think they're a needed entity for mainstream adaptation. -

@zykotick9 I also think Ubuntu is doing some interesting things like the recently announced phone OS. -

@losinggeneration maybe ad-aware oriented like desktop version? Or worse? Debian is not ubuntu, thanks Jupiter! :) -

@filhocf: you realize that by spreading that (false) meme you're actually negatively advertising debian installer, right? -

sure Debian is much better than Ubuntu. And no comparison indeed. Try running Ubuntu on #N900. I assure you Debian Lenny runs without issues -

!Debian, because outdated software in stable is cool :P -

@redi44, you can use testing or unstable, according your profile. See more in my infografic of !Debian: http://va.mu/TcXc -

@debexpert I actually said, "comparisons are *valid*" Devil's advocate says: a quick google search shows Ubuntu running on the #n900 ;) -

@losinggeneration yep I know it, I was aware but it's a crap, otherwise Debian works goos ...on N900 ;) -

@losinggeneration Hardy? lol Lenny is no comparison on N900, due to the LXDE -

@filhocf Testing is still slowing down during freezes, right? And unstable is, well, unstable :) (not to mention disappearing software) -

@debexpert *facepalm* You say it's no comparison after _directly_ comparing them: http://is.gd/c1myCx -

@debexpert Or perhaps saying, "And no comparison indeed" may have just been a poor choice of words to express what you meant. -

@losinggeneration ya maybe. Indeed you are right. Next time I'll express better how ubuntu mobile is worse then debian ;) -
