Lubuntu Netbook Remix: A Look

,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, thereâs not much else to say 
| about how LNR actually works.  Itâs a 
| simple, straightforward product; what you 
| see is what you get.  When I was using it, 
| the only criticism I had was that there 
| are no keyboard shortcuts for navigating 
| between the different categories of the 
| netbook interface.

Puppy Linux slims Ubuntu down

,----[ Quote ]
| Puppy Linux's latest release may be based 
| on Ubuntu but it is still as small as ever
| 
| Puppy Linux, a long-time maker of ultra-
| compact versions of Linux, has released 
| Lupu, its first release based on Ubuntu 
| Linux.
| 
| Over the years Puppy Linux has typically 
| released slimmed-down versions of Linux 
| that clock in at around 100MB in size. 
| Being that small Puppy Linux is both small 
| to download as well as being compact 
| enough to run entirely from RAM.
| 
| Now the project has released a new branch 
| of its operating system, basing it this 
| time on Ubuntu Linux. The final download 
| size is a little bit bigger than the usual 
| Puppy releases at 128MB, but it is still 
| significantly smaller than the 600MB+ 
| downloads for the original Ubuntu Linux.

| Finally, the Lubuntu developers have
| created a special interface for netbooks.
| I havenât had much time to explore it yet,
| but hope to do so soon.  Briefly, though,
| hereâs what it looks like...

Lubuntu looks familiar! â Hint: Xandros

,----[ Quote ]
| Folks at Ubuntu have rolled-out Alpha 3 of
| Lubuntu. To us, the most exiting feature
| this version brings with it is the Lubuntu
| Netbook session which has a striking
| resemblance to the Xandros interface that
| was made popular by the first gen-Eee PCs
| by Asus.

Lubuntu Review: A Lightweight Ubuntu Variant

,----[ Quote ]
| If you are looking for a lightweight
| alternative to install in your old PC or
| netbook, Lubuntu is a great choice. You wonât
| get any eye candy or special graphical
| effects, but what you get is fast speed at a
| low cost. Itâs time to put your old PC back to
| work.
