Debian and its crap

I'm not dissing the Debian GNU/Linux OS in any way whatsoever, but I am going to say that it must have a lot of crap on it, as the full set requires 21 CDs!!! Even Ubuntu (highly recommended for the newbie linux user) is just small enough to fit on a 700MB CD, which includes cool apps such as the GIMP image editor, lots of games, and stuff.

NOOOO My kernels!

Someone (or something) corrupted the sh!t out of my Linux kernel! I've reinstalled, but there are config issues that I'm working on...
