I recently put Ubuntu 7.4 on one of my machines in order to see the Ubuntu (Debian way).

I am still stuck not being able to add an alternate repository to my repository list. So far adding software resolves itself to compiling rather than finding the equivalent binary rpm.
Aaron your NOT a Windows person. A Windows person likes to see a box that already has all he/she will ever want. They want to USE WHAT THEY HAVE. You want to be able to change at will almost anything.
