Thanks.

It was good, but I'd prefer a more traditional review. Still, it shed plenty of light into blag50k. :) Just my opinion though.

Thanks,
Stephen Clement

I was in a weird mood, and I thought I'd try something a little different. Glad you liked it, though.

yeah, it's a good review... it has a different feel to it, and it's a good change after reading the (sam old) technical reviews...

I liked it. It was weirder to read (different) but got the job done.

I thought it was good, considering the folks that don't appreciate the rationale behind free software. BLAG is just one of a handfull of distros that are 100% free on the CD and in the repositary.

Also it's nice to have a "non-technical" or geeky review. Not every one wants to know what compiler is included. How do I play music, write reports and browse the net? That was all covered nice and simply.

Yeah, sorry about that. I was threatened numerous times about my weblog, people telling me that I was stealing content, which was not true.

They spooked me enough to make me pull my site. Sorry about that. I'll have a "real" review of Blag 50001 up as my next post.

No worries. Check the Google caches to see the "old" 50,000 review.

My site is back up, anyways. FREE SPEECH!!!

Yeah, I liked the review because many of the Qs are what lots of people ask and they were answered in a clear no technical manner.

It was differnt and good.....just like Blag ;)
