The meeting

[Justin Bennett]

Nice article thanks, Also goes along with the security through obscurity
philosophy... 
	Nice idea for servers and machines connected to a dedicated internet
connection. However for an end user doing a first install, I still
recommend using the latest version of the distro you want, updated
drivers and installers can make life a lot easier... 

Just my 2 cents...
