Do You Ubuntu?

I played around with Puppy about 2 years ago when I
"went for Linux" and downloaded about 25 different
distros and put an old Pentium 3 through a weekly
reformat until it choked! At the time I was not
particulalrly taken with Puppy - but, as we are all
aware; a week is a long time in the software world,
and 2 years is a hell of a long time.

Puppy has made great strides. In its current state, I would never use DSL in preference, for example. I even read about some Brazilians on the Internet who were so impressed with it, they ripped out their Ubuntus in order to install it! (But that's unnecessary, since Puppy runs perfectly from a pendrive, and its incredibly easy to set up in this way.)
