Mini Review of a Tiny PCLOS

,----[ Quote ]
| TinyMe is a scaled down version of PCLinuxOS 2007. The latest version 
| is delivered as a 177 MB liveCD and features the Lightweight X11 
| Desktop Enviroment, Synaptic, and the PCLinuxOS Control Center. It 
| comes with a few applications, so it could be a really light version 
| of PCLOS for older computers or a foundation on which to build your 
| own system as you choose.

PCLinuxOS: Linux Distribution

,----[ Quote ]
| One notable difference from Mandriva is the program used to install 
| extra software. We found this much easier to use and includes useful 
| software such as graphics drivers.
| 
| Unlike some other distributions, PCLinuxOS can play back 
| proprietary multimedia files (including wma, mp3, mpg, rm, 
| mov) without having to install extra software. DVD playback 
| software is not included but can be installed with the 
| standard installation tool.

Review: PcLinuxOS 2007

| While PcLinuxOS does still have a bit of growing to do, out of all the
| linux distributions out there, I'd easily rate this one as the best in 
| every way because of all that it does, how easy it is to use, how ready
| it is to use out of the box, and most especially in the area of 
| appeasing both camps, the new user and the experienced user.

PClinuxOS 2007.0 Review

,----[ Quote ]
| I am a Kubuntu user since version 6.06. However, that hasn't made
| me blindly consider (k)ubuntu to be the best linux distro; I am
| always open to newcomers. In recent days, PClinuxOS 2007.0 was 
| released, and quickly hit the top of of the distrowatch charts.
| I decided to download it and give this relatively new distribution
| a text run on my Acer Aspire 5050 laptop, nicknamed the geebee.
