Damn Small Linux - Puppy's small brother
I guess I'm biased, but I have a soft spot when it comes to small-size distros. I like it when developers have the craftsmanship to bundle lots of great stuff into small, highly practical packages, proving that size matters not.
Or does it?
Puppy Linux has proven its worth, time and time again. Despite its modest footprint, it managed to impress me with a dazzling array of applications and great support for wireless, multimedia codecs, including Flash, MP3 and other Windows formats out of the box, NTFS write access, and more. Furthermore, it managed to look good, run fast, stay stable. Not to be bested, it also spawned countless mods, each a unique visual and functional surprise.
In this case, Puppy proved that size matters not.
Can Damn Small Linux do the same?
