It's the right distro if you want to stay in control, but that means you have to invest some time and learn how to set up things. For the first install you'll have to do some things manually (e.g. partition disks, install a boot loader etc.), but the wiki explaining all this is very good. Package management via pacman is excellent and things get updated rater rapidly. Support on the arch-general list is OK, but note that the Arch devs can be on the arrogant side if you ask questions but fail to read essential documentation first, or if you question their wisdom. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
