Take it to the Linux forums if you are so adamant. Otherwise, no one but you cares about this stupid size thing you are getting into. (Or are you just compensating. )

Seriously, there is no bias here and discussion is mature and civil...
..Then you come along.
Lunar made a point that he believes to be an issue, the issue appears to be the fact that his chosen distro doesn't have much in the way of packages/dependencies by default and he has to download considerably more than would otherwise be considered normal. I am not attacking him and I am talking respectfully. Initially he believed the download size to be excessive due to the need to download numerous packages/dependencies, I have proven that the download size is not really that excessive in comparison to Windows. He believes that fragmentation across distro's is an issue, both ChadD and myself have explained that's the nature of open source and in many way's it's actually beneficial not to be locked down to a particular ecosystem.
If you believe anything I have claimed is in error, please, feel free to prove otherwise.
Otherwise, whether you were the OP of this thread or not, it would be appreciated if you could post in a mature and friendly manner. You're always welcome to send me a PM if you have an issue with my posting as opposed to clogging up forum threads.
