    Cultus to be fair very seldomly is anything criticized relating to linux or opensource in this section of the forum unless its coming from a Microsoft advocate. Give the os a try you never know

    I know duster, and that is why my comments and others will be greeted with flames of us being ignorant.... when in fact I am not being ignorant..I'm just saying that if it is that I need an OS-X User Experience, I would be better off skinning Windows to look like OS-X and still have a supposedly better experience... But fine, as an Avid supporter of Open Source, I will give this Distro a fair try... I may just prefer it to Ubuntu... If I do I will remove Ubuntu and put this on my Laptop...

    With an ISO size of 1 Gig for Comice, that's an immediate turn off for me.
    The netbook version maybe 800Megs but I wanna try the desktop version.

    When there are distros like QNX that fits on a floppy having a distro that takes up at least a gig of hd space b4 installation has me skeptical about even trying this on an old pentium machine.

    Nice looking distro. Not for me though. Not a big dock fan. That is why I use KDE. If I wanted to use an OS with a dock, I would go for Ubuntu and Unity. For those who love all the eye candy stuff, it is definitely a great Ubuntu derivative.

    Please note it requires a 64bit processor so that old box might not cut it.
