I just finished downloading Kubuntu. Will it be better than Debian
4.0, ya think? More modern, they say. We'll see.

Kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE wm. Ubuntu is based off Debian so you
shouldn't notice much of a change (except that KDE sucks balls just as

This Kubuntu *IS* Debian, dammit!!

What a waste of my time. Looks and feel exactly the same. chit.. I am
reformatting and going back to Debian. Also, I didn't like the fact that
it never asked me where to put Grub. I am very angry now, especially

CHIT!!! Talking about Kubuntu\Ubuntu is updated quicker than Debian...
BULL TURDS! All I have to do is put "testing" in my apt sources. I
should have known. Blah~~
