,----[ Quote ]
| The founder of the Tiny Core Linux project, 
| Robert Shingledecker, announced on December 
| 19th the immediate availability of the Tiny 
| Core Linux 2.7 operating system, a version 
| that brings lots of updated applications 
| and scripts, various improvements and, of

| system:

| a new menu option, called "Install

Does the distro matter?

,----[ Quote ]
| But it got me thinking. A few weeks ago, I 
| asked, Is there a best distro?. The 
| question this phone call raised was, does 
| it matter which distribution you are 
| running? For the moment, let us put aside 
| which has a better desktop and focus on the 
| server. Is there really a difference 
| between distributions when it comes to what 
| you run on a server? Is there anything so 
| specific within a distribution that it 
| matters whether you are experienced with 
| Debian or Red Hat? I will admit that in all 
| my years of working in the Windows world, 
| no one has asked me if I have experience 
| with Datacenter instead of Standard. Why, 
| in the Linux world should it matter if I 
| have experience with CentOS instead of 
| Unbreakable?

Tiny Core: The Little Distro That Could

,----[ Quote ]
| The way we use computers is changing, but Linux isnât standing still. Tiny
| Core is a minimal Linux distribution that boots a complete live system for
| every day use. Its foundation and unique approach to the desktop helps it
| achieve certain goals like preventing system rot and ensuring your system is
| fresh every time it boots.
|
| [...]
|
| Although Tiny Core is a relatively new distro, it has a great deal of history
| behind it already. It is developing at a rapid pace and implementing new
| features along the way. It really can change the way you think about running
| Linux over a more traditional method. Itâs an exciting project and really
| worth playing with. Itâs lots of fun and it does deliver on its promises. Try
| it out and see how fast, stable, clean and fun a Linux system can be!

Tiny Core Linux 2.1

,----[ Quote ]
| They say that good things come in small packages and so it is with Tiny Core
| Linux, a diminutive but powerful distribution. TCL weighs in at an incredibly
| petite 11MB when you download it. Yes, it really is that tiny. Tiny Core
| Linux is based on Busybox, the Linux 2.6 kernel, JWM, Fltk and Tiny X.
