Further I believe that association with Slackware will attract elitist users who worship the terminal and offer such sage wisdom to new users as RTFM (F for obscenity) or Google is your friend. YMMV I have my fill of CLI supporting 100's of users on SCO UNIX, so I usually don't want to have to do t...

Symbiotic means that devs also get something useful in return, I don't see anyone offering any kind of bounties.

It is not entirely dissimilar to the idea that public libraries are "free" -- when in fact, they do cost something to build and operate, but they are available at no cost to the user. In the case of Puppy Linux, our gracious devs donate their time to create a similarly valuable product, w...

Speaking of which, have you tried Xubuntu ? Actually, I have, it didn't want to run. My laptop had 192MB ram back then. Haven't tried since I installed puppy, have 384MB now.. I like puppy, and really don't want to switch to another Linux flavour. Right now, the only issues are the touchpad and the...

...Puppy is a flavor-of-the-day thing, a disposable dog toy. Bernie, you are fanning the flames here. While this last comment is "technically" relating to the subject, perhaps the issue is that people throw out ideas,, and don't explain the reasons. Perhaps I missed them. hard to tell - t...
