I see that 4 beta 1 is out. Is there a post or article somewhere about what's new in PuppyLinux 4?

Thank you Lobster for the links, i read all the info. But i still can´t find:

An official application list for Puppy 4, what´s the new small browser (i like dillo for .html files used for help, really fast), what are the "standard" applications removed, added or just updated.

What´s the absolute minimum memory to run Puppy 4 and the minimum needed to run Puppy 4 Fully in memory (to free the CD/DVD drive). I hope the memory requirements are down like in 2.x series. In fact
i´m a poor linux user and i really don´t care the slackware compat and the big size of Puppy 3 (for my old pc stuff).

Thank you again for any info that you could send.

Clarf,

Sadly, Puppy 4 is not down to the memory requirements of Puppy 2.

The latest news on the Developer's Blog is that it requires 256MB of free memory to run beta 1 or 2 in RAM only.

Because some machines reserves 32MB of memory for use with the video Barry will experiment with dropping this to 224MB in the next version (Release Candidate?).
