@sebsebseb No, I never got around to it. I used to hop distros all the time in my f
-
@sebsebseb Yeah! Sorry I meant to come back and add that :)
-
@sebsebseb Now I mostly use Xubuntu, Debian and Fedora. I'm getting too set in my ways but there's something to be said for the comfort ..
-
@sebsebseb .. of what you know :)
-
@sebsebseb I may have tried Mageia. I sometimes give up really fast if I don't like something. I can be too impatient
-
@sebsebseb At one point I had worked my way through the top 15 on Distrowatch :)
-
@silner !Mageia is a good #distro :). #Mageia 2 15th May :). Next month going to do a Lightning Talk probably about it: http://ur1.ca/8z6l5
-
@sebsebseb .. HD died :)
-
@sebsebseb That was my spare box, the one I hopped on and I haven't got around to collecting enough bits to build another yet :(
-
@sebsebseb I will have to get back to it. At one time I had plans to start a blog reviewing distros from the novice perspective
-
@sebsebseb I'd still like to do that and I promise myself I will… soon
-
@silner Where about's in UK do you live?
-
@silner Would you like to help me give out #Mageia CD's & stickers at a event near Bristol probably on Sat 19th May? http://ur1.ca/8z6l5

@silner I went down the #Distrowatch list in a few days or so trying out loads of #distros in #VirtualBox in #2009 I think it was.
-
@sebsebseb I dunno. I'm not very gregarious :)
-
@sebsebseb Yeah I mostly use VB when I try distros now. Well it's case of having to really :)
-
@silner Oh ok.
-
@sebsebseb But if I blogged about them I'd want to test them on Hardware, especially KDE distros, they always seem slower in VMs
-
@silner I think that sounds quite good :).
-
@silner What do you mean by that exactly in that context?
-
@silner Of the word gregarious the context of this conversation is not how it should be by the looks of it.
-
@silner Well yes for a blog would need to try them out on real hardware for a fair test, but could blog about a #VirtualBox test as well.
-
@sebsebseb Yeah I think I replied to the wrong post there
-
@silner Oh ok.
