Well, I'm probably to blame; I misinterpreted Bruce's comments, thinking
he was talking about a perceived overhead of Debian relative to DSL
(digital subscriber line, not Damn Small Linux) (such a perceived
overhead to me doesn't exist) when (as I found out soon enough) he was
really talking about Damn Small Linux all the time (the overhead
meaning the extra things Debian has, such as apt-get etc.)

Oh well. My bad.
