Debian Etch.

I have Debian Etch/stable installed on some desktop machines in an Internet 
Kiosk I have something to do with, and I wouldn't try to put anything Linux 
in front of the windows accustomed public without KDE. It works a treat they 
are amazed they are using Linux when informed of this. It makes more work for 
me because they then ask if they could install it on their computers, but I 
digress.

You will have to use Debian backports to have something a little more up to 
date if required. But then Debian Lenny/testing doesn't have a lot problems 
but couldn't be described as completely stable all the time.

I run Linux Debian Lenny/testing on two Acer lappys and Linux Debian 
Etch/stable on another, my with me all the time machine, a Toshie lappy with 
only 64MB RAM and 10GB hard drive Though on this I don't run KDE and only 
version 1.4 lyx.

Might be the way to go? Or not?

Be well,
Charlie
