DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Change of applications

So far the developers are trying to accomodate more apps to the constrained sized iso. It actually means that DSL is getting better. The requirement is major for some of the apps which we cannot neglect without a proper replacement.

Doesn't run well on old hardware?

I have used it on a PII, and it was as fast as a PIII running XP, in terms of booting and such.

I have used it on VMWare under Windows, and it ran as fast as Windows.

I am using it right now on my PIII, and it is the fastest computer here for webbrowsing and word processing, even faster than that shiny new Dell my grandfather has.

I've played with many other small live-CD distros, and this is, IMHO, the fastest, easiest, and most configureable one I have seen.

Don't like it? Don't use it. There is a reason why there are so many distros - they tailor them to different needs....
