1233626	2011-09-26 00:44:00	Damn Small Linux	KarameaDave (15222)
1233627	2011-09-26 00:47:00	thanks	beninstine (16565)
1233628	2011-09-26 02:19:00	Puppy will also run on that	gary67 (56)
1233629	2011-09-26 05:14:00	The core is only 10mb if you dont have much hdd space	nedkelly (9059)
1233630	2011-09-26 06:10:00	I'd take Puppy over DSL any day.	baabits (15242)
1233631	2011-09-26 06:33:00	Damn Small LinuxThis isn't such a good choice - DSL is somewhat out of date, and the most recent release is over three years old. Puppy is a much better bet.	Erayd (23)
1233632	2011-09-26 06:47:00	But it doesn't like so little RAM. Tiny Core is the new project by the guy behind Damn Small, I think?	KarameaDave (15222)
1233633	2011-09-26 08:17:00	But it doesn't like so little RAM.No reason you can't cram it happily into that unless you're wanting to run a fully-featured modern DE. The big RAM-sucker is always going to be the web browser; there's unfortunately not much you can do about that. Tiny Core is the new project by the guy behind Damn Small, I think?I'm don't know - I haven't kept track of him, but it's entirely possible.	Erayd (23)
1233634	2011-09-26 10:25:00	Try Macpup, I recently ran it on a system with 192MB RAM quite well! Its based off Puppy and uses enlightenment e17	Chilling_Silence (9)
