@Doric
I've been thinking about what Moriador said, and as you're obviously so well clued-up on all this stuff, ok then, I have a question for you.

Rather than go on the abusive because I recommend Debian, what 'OS' do you recommend to onlookers?

See if you can answer that without spouting your panic-ridden bullshit about you not even connecting your computer to the web.  People won't give-up using their computer on the web, that's obvious.  If you have such a low opinion of Debian, what other option is there, what option would you choose assuming a person actually needs to make use of their computer on the net?

You clearly like to badmouth me for recommending Debian, but so far you have offered no alternative to it whatsoever.  You're being asked a civil question in a civil manner, so see if you can reply to it in a civil manner - what would you use?
