sheepy, I couldn't use the 3.3 version due to the size that is listricted by MU's xp installer.(Unetbootin didn't work)

So I tried to download 2.4 version of yours but Softpea and sourceforge all pointed to 3.3 version.

Is your 2.4 smaller than 300mb?

If so, any chance to get it?

Nooby, you got what I mean. And apology accepted :wink: raffy, you are right. I have heard of GIGA byte's windows tablet. The only problem is the price. I can find some windows based tablets here in China but close to 4000 yuan. Regular PC is just 2 to 3000 yuan. ARM based cost only 7 to 800 yuan. F...

I don't know how to spell but there is a thing called Wi-Di something.

From any notebook, you can see movies on TV. The function will be implemented to tablets sooner or later.

No need for HDMI or vga connectors.

I am also attaching the photo of my use of bigger screen TV with input from my small netbook. Screen size and keyboard input is not the problems. The problem is ARM which might be able to emulate x86 based Puppy on it. Thank you, folks. I have heard enough. Let's move onto something else. Uh.. somet...

Sure tablets don't have keyboard or mouse. But it is possible to attach them to. (detachable keyboard with touch was seen and joystick for iPad show the possibility of mouse) I re-googled and now attaching some images from google showing keyboards. However, the main point is ARM not keyboard. By the...

Well, well.. I had to log in to type in. 8-bit, PCs will continue to do its programming work but how many of computer users would do programming even for a hobby?

Hello, gcmartin I have read your opinion this morning. I accept most of things you said but there are a few things to streghten out. Maybe an Intel ATOM would be more a little closer to your price ranges. ATOM based notebooks are also disappearing. People need either more powerful notebooks (willing...

Whether it is called PC or whatever, whether PC survives for longer than expectected period of time, important thing is that most of the puppies being made are for x86 architecture which is quite old in the term of computer world. I have seen some effort trying other CPUs here but no ARM so far. So ...

Simpy put, I think we need ARM based puppylinux which we can install on originally Android devices. That little device will take over wht PC would do for us. When enemy shoots with automatic firearms, would you keep using beloved good old 1800s single action Colt? It's like yellow skinned American n...

I just now wrote a long "essay" on my opinion but it's gone. The points were; 1> People need only one computing device and iPhone and iPad are hard to put off. PC is less used or totally ignored and would get rid of. 2> People use computing devices for entertainment or news nowadays. Photo...

A true concern about the very future of Puppylinux

When I posted my concern about the disappearing PC, no body listened. Even laughed. They all believed that their PC would last forever. It's the in the path of computer's evolution. From the hugh white elephant desktop to portable noteboot to lighter, smaller netbooks and now tablet PC. Right now ap...

`f00, your information is very valuable. Thanks. Frankly I am stuck. Just changing some icons into gray seems like beyond my reach. Why are png there when all basic icons are xpm? And do I really need extra locales when I use only 3, 4 languages? I can save something like 70mb if I erase what's not ...

Thank you, Steve. I guess SVG means Scalable Vector Graphic(s) something. If i have to draw on png image to make svg, it's not worth trying. Mucho travajo, poco dinero... Why is desktop icons limited to 48 pixels? Why not 128, 256 pixels? Hugh, bold icons could be beautiful if you use only a few ico...
