Sweet! Linux website

**Bartender** · 04-26-2007, 06:10 AM

I stumbled on this website the other day - I kinda like the way they make Linux recommendations based on the age of the PC.
Anybody have any thoughts on their recommendations? I might try Zenwalk or KATEOS on an old PIII...

Zenwalk is very light and quick.
I think it's around 300MB and it uses the very sanitary XFCE desktop environment.
I couldn't get my wireless up with it, but I haven't given up.

Found the main support site could use more traffic.
It is from France....not that there's anything wrong with that

Hi, Kyle! I thought of you when I read that PCLOS is one of their "Sweet!" approved OS'es!

I notice PCLOS website is back up. PCLOS 2007 TR4 released. That's still not the final, is it?

LOL, I guess I'm kind of a PCLOS fanatic.
Nope it's not final, texstar says that TR4 is the last test release before final, and final will quickly follow TR4.
