I didn't have a problem getting it to work on PCLinuxOS, I was rather surprised with how easy it was to setup overall

I downloaded it, burned iso to cd, ran it on my laptop, config'ed the WPA on wireless, and posting this message from it :-D "That's no moon, it's a space station" - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Nice isn't it? Its the easiest distro I've found to setup and run. I also like the fact you can run it from the LiveCD before ever installing it.

That is really nice. Ubuntu 7 has that feature as well, but the winner with PCLinuxOS is being able to setup the wireless with WPA. Little or no effort, well, only effort was to get up and get the ESSID and PSK :laugh: I have to say it is a very nice Linux distro :-D

I'm rather impressed with it too since I'm really not a Linux "guru". They really made it easy to use. Now if there was just a way to get my development software to work on it I'd be truly happy ;P

I'm sure you don't mean 3MHz. That's not exactly the fastest clock you could be running at.;P

Three times faster than a ZX Spectrum, or about half the speed of an Amiga A500 :-D

If you don't kow about it already you might want to try: PC-BSD[^] instead of Linux.
Didn't know about PC-BSD, thanks for the link! For the original author that posted the linux distro question, just checked the requirements: Minimum system requirements Pentium or higher (686) 256MB Ram 4GB of free Hard Drive space (Either partition, or entire disk) Network card Sound card

I run a dual-boot with PCLinuxOS and it seems to be a nice distro
