mmm recursive acronyms...

And I think the dslos site is for the NFPs and others.

I doubt that the name will change.

DAMN Small Linux forever!!!

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

With 146,000 google entries for "Damn Small Linux" I have to agree.
Interestingly it is also number 3 in the acronymfinder

BTW as a continuing exercise in futility here's another DSL suggestion .........
Dynamic Small Linux (I think it is fairly descriptive of DSL's current state)

Cheers to all

John,

I understand your concern. I love DSL and use it daily, as I'm sure many here do. However, I must refer to it as Darn Small when conversing with co-workers and the like. So, just wanted to say that I applaud your conscience. On the other hand, Damn Samll does have a ring to it that is unlike any other, just like the distro itself.
Thanks for DSL. You have made my peek at Linux turn into a full fledged belly flop from the high dive. And i like it! I'm never going back to Bill Gates. He's been kicked to the curb.....

Personally, I just don't get it.

We live in a world where people are allowed to starve, where criminals have more rights then the people they victimize,  where lots of money and a good lawyer will get you out of damn near any trouble.

We live in a world where children, CHILDREN are thrown out of their homes, to live on the street, where they are forced (by the need to survive) to sell their bodies to any filthy piece of shit that has the money.

Where they are abused by the pimps, by the johns, by the damn system.

Where John has to worry about the name he chose.

And people have to use the word "darn" in place of "damn" in conversation.

Jesus.H.Christ, what a ed up world.

My apologies for any emotional trauma caused by the use of the word "damn" in this post.
