And when you do, try linux from scratch on your back up machine. I learnt more in the 6 months I was running LFS than I have done previously or since (and after seeing the multitude of binaries on debian, which I haven't got a clue what most of them do I feel the slight urge to go back to it)

Already been there - well partway at least. The current release isn't kernel 2.6 though, so I'll wait for version 6. Though maybe I won't; just as I don't do my own car maintenance I feel that for me, getting that intimate with Linux isn't really necessary. I just want a bit more control than is offered by SuSE or Mandrake, and some better justification for the ADSL line here that sits idle most of the time.
