    I’m been using mepis solidily (when not doing my tax, (or using vpn)) since December.
    Is there any reason for changing,
    KDE4 or the recent ubuntu look new and shiny,
    and firefox 3 hasn’t turned up in my enabled repos

    but then ff2 does all i need
    and I guess it’s because it’s so stable I’ve kept using mepis
    so do i just wait for mepis 8 …?

    I usually subscribe to two theories:

    1. Don’t touch beta software for actual work; and
    2. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

    I think KDE4 still needs to mature a bit before it’s ready for everyday use.
