Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Is Puppy an idea?

 

Sure. Puppy is great. Once upon a time, it used to be just something that users ran from CD to fix problems, but it has since grown into a full installable distribution. It is still so small that it can be run from RAM. I find it a bit rough for daily use (uses JWM) and it does not have all that I need, but I am a KDE user who likes lots of control and bling and who runs lots of applications not available in Puppy. It is definitely worth trying, if you have modest needs.

The nice thing about Puppy is that it is not based on anything. It is developed from scratch and can be used to make your own Linux distro based on it using a tool called Woof. The big criticism I would make is that it runs all users as root, so that can be problematic for everyday use for security reasons.
