If you are interested in distributions that are derived from PCLOS try SAM Linux 2007 (at www.sam-linux.org). It is the (german) XFCE derivate of PCLOS.<BR/>In distrowatch.com it ranks at #36.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work,<BR/>GregorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5023590240909870844.post-62600226160231222342007-11-11T17:06:00.000+08:002007-11-11T17:06:00.000+08:00Great review. The idea for a review like this is to let people come up and also share their experiences with this particular distro using their own particular hardware.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5023590240909870844.post-61786296747538224772007-11-10T12:20:00.000+08:002007-11-10T12:20:00.000+08:00In reviewing lightweight Linux distros I find it really irritating when the reviewer tests it on a relatively current machine. As one reading the review what I want to know is how well does it work on an old machine?<BR/><BR/>Is it that hard to find an old box? Just a few weeks ago I found a 933 MHz. PIII by the curb on trash pickup night. How hard is it to find a Pentium II or a first generation Pentium box?<BR/><BR/>I found the reader comments much more useful in this regard then the review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5023590240909870844.post-19331096265127186682007-11-08T23:40:00.000+08:002007-11-08T23:40:00.000+08:00on an ibm thinkpad 390E 300Mhz, 128 Ram, 4GB I couldn't use xUbuntu (I install it, but was to slow), but TinyMe work great for me.

However, compared to the speed of zenwalk with xfce, tinyme (on the same machine, amd athlon 1600+) isn't that responsive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5023590240909870844.post-77617543505358257352007-11-08T00:03:00.000+08:002007-11-08T00:03:00.000+08:00I'm in the process of installing TinyMe on an old Dell Latitude CP laptop (P1 MMX 233Hhz, 128Ram) and although it isn't as snappy as Damn Small Linux (DSL) it seems more feature-rich without being too bloated.<BR/><BR/>Also, the forums are friendly, open and pleasant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5023590240909870844.post-43152592550459102392007-11-07T17:46:00.000+08:002007-11-07T17:46:00.000+08:00Very good review. I will certainly love to try TinyMe when the stable version is released. Thanks for this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
