I now have exactly 255 forum posts. This is a very special number as it's the maximum value of a string of 8 bits, which is very important in computer terms. I'm planning to stop using this account so it stays at that number, and I will be creating a new account soon.

I don't know why people say Linux is unfriendly and hard to use. I have been using Debian for nine days now and I haven't had any difficulties with it. Want to install software?
