Review: Geexbox 1.1
,----[ Quote ]
| Geexbox is a compact Linux distribution designed with the HTPC (home theater
| pc) in mind. It's paltry 8.9mb cd footprint makes it perfect for taking
| anywhere you want to go. You can even use it at home for your regular media
| center if you so desire. It's biggest claim to fame is that it can play any
| file at any time anywhere. You could even, in theory, take it to school
| with you and watch videos in class, not that I condone that or anything.

| If Geexbox keeps improving and adding new features, over time it may even be
| a strong contender with the likes of MythTV and other Linux HTPC solutions.
