What was painful 6 years ago
Having run scores of Debian servers and laptops for the last 7 years I'm intrigued to know why the writer considers that "our experience with Debian was not nearly as painful as when we first tried it out five or six years ago". The installation process, famously, can be generally described as pressing "enter" repeatedly and that has not changed in the interim, although hardware support certainly has certainly improved.
