DSL

DSL as in the OS, not the connection.

Holy crap! I have heard you guys talk about Damn Small Linux allot over the past shows, and well, I decided to give it a try. I had it less than a day and I already think its the coolest think since sliced bread. It gave new life to my old 400Mhz laptop. Booted and it detected everything, wireless and all.

Damn Small is a great light distro for older machines. The customized fluxbox desktop is real nice as well. The configuration tools are excellentl.

I also have it on my 128 meg usb flash drive that wasn't doing anything since I bought a 512 meg one and now I have an emergency boot disk along with a distro I can carry around and show off.

DSL does rock!!
