Weird I can deal with. It's the "order of magnitude more complicated" |
| 12 |
that gets annoying. Granted, in the case of Grub2, most of that is |

| 14 |
know how they manage it, but every time the Ubunutu folks have a |
| 15 |
decision to make, they pick a direction exactly opposite that which I |
| 16 |
would choose. Still, I have to give them credit for still making a |
| 17 |
usable single-CD system when everybody else requires 4 CDs or a DVD. |
