I pulled an old ThinkPad 600 (96M ram/P233) from the pile and went looking for something that would run X and a browser. I tried Xubutu which was described as "lite" but it took over 5 hours to install and was a total dog. Being use to FreeBSD and 10 min installs I knew this wasn't for me. Then a came across DSLN and figured, WTF. You guys have it! This is what I was looking for. It runs the two apps I really need, a terminal and a decent browser. It found my fscking WIFi netcard (netgear M401) without any config needed. You guys rock!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I'm sure I'll have more questions and you'll be hearing more from me.
