It wasn't ironically. 173, I wasn't sure if it was ..3 (still had 3 in
mind), was my preferred version. I was and I'm serious!

I didn't run Arch, but Suse, Debian and Ubuntu and a "Debian and Ubuntu
derivative", 64Studio with 17x, while there already was 2x available,
IIRC.

I'm not hunting for latest software versions, I'm hunting for softwares
that in combination with other software and my available hardware, fit
to my needs and I freeze a stable Linux that fit to my needs, as long,
as possible. Hardware could irreparable brake, happened to me, or a
bonanza allows me to switch from a semi-pro to a pro-audio card,
happened to me ... thus an upgrade might be needed, happened to me.

;)

I prefer a rolling release to other releases, but I'm willing to freeze
a rolling release on my machine, as soon as I'm satisfied, as long as
possible.

Apologize, broken English, but I'm sure you understand ;).
