SAM Linux 2009

,----[ Quote ]
| SAM is a pleasant, small LiveCD distribution that doesn't use Gnome or KDE 
| (although in all fairness XFce does use Gnome libraries). The software 
| selection is small but covers most of the common themes users will want.

Kongoni Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| It's pretty, but I'm not sure how much of that is the work of the maintainers 
| and how much of it is owed to KDE 4. Their differentiating features, PIG and 
| KISS, are less than impressive to a casual user.

PCLinuxOS 2009.2 Review

,----[ Quote ]
| After running into Problems with Mandriva 2009.1 with my sound cutting out 
| and making static sounds and sometimes not working at all I decided to give 
| PCLinuxOS a try.  Since PCLinuxOS is based on Mandriva the first thing I did 
| was check to make sure the sound was working properly and it was.

Sabayon 4.2

,----[ Quote ]
| Sabayon is always fun. It's pretty, has a good selection of software, and 
| it's still the easiest way to get a working Gentoo-based system on my 
| computer.

SAM Linux 2008 'Claws' rc1: A Brief Visual Tour

,----[ Quote ]
| So, that's the end of my brief tour of SAM Linux 2008. It's a hugely 
| promising distribution and I'm fairly sure we're going to be hearing more 
| about it in the future. Â
| Well worth a try, if only as a very useful live CD.

Review of SAM Linux 2007

,----[ Quote ]
| It's a nice release and the XCFE interface serves it well but I
| couldn't say I noticed any real performance gains over PCLOS'
| KDE window manager.

|
| Someone once told me that SAM2007 is to PCLinuxOS what Mint was to Ubuntu 
| and I agree; but probably not for the right reasons.
