An in-depth look at Puppy Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| I've discussed the features of Puppy Linux in this article to show its 
| potential uses. But I've left out one vital fact -- Puppy Linux is just plain 
| fun. The friendly interface, easy-to-use wizards and bundled how-to's are 
| part of this appeal, but it goes beyond this, into how easily you can tailor 
| or even remaster the system. Puppy is an engaging system that comes with the 
| opportunity to participate in a vibrant user community.

openSUSE 10.3: one step forward, two steps back

,----[ Quote ]
| But in the case of openSUSE, Novell's community version of its SUSE 
| distrbution, this isn't the case. No, you are set for quite an ordeal and if 
| you don't have some background in using Linux and don't know some of the 
| politics within the community, you won't be able to have a look at it.

Taking Puppy Linux for a Walk

,----[ Quote ]
| The two main uses for Puppy Linux (or any Linux live CD) are to:
| 
|     * Rescue files from the host PC's hosed hard drive or perform various 
|     maintenance tasks (like imaging that drive) 
|     * Compute on a machine without leaving a trace—like browser history, 
|     cookies, documents or any other files—behind on the internal hard drive

Puppy 3.00 runs on the $0 Laptop

,----[ Quote ]
| It's nice to put in a CD, boot in a couple of minutes and have the Puppy 
| environment I love right there for me. Abiword, Geany, Seamonkey, Pidgin, 
| ROX-Filer, MtPaint. Every one works great and loads quickly.

ReviewLinux.Com: Puppy Meet My USB Key

,----[ Quote ]
| Puppy Linux is a great Linux distribution to place on a USB key. It's easy 
| installation instructions make it a breeze to install. From boot up to 
| installation on your key in under 10 minutes. It's just that fast. Puppy 
| Linux 3.0 was released October 2 2007 and I thought I would give a small tour 
| on walking your puppy to the key. Enjoy!
