I am very impressed with DSL. I have tried the live cd and used it for a little while off and on but I just did an hd-install. I love it. It is quick, smooth, has all the things I need to get started. It is great. The Hd-Install was so easy my cat could have done it. My favorite distro has been Mandrake 10.0 Official. Well DSL is now my favorite, though Mandrake is a close second.

I totally agree! I've tried Knoppix on my old computer already, but it ran like a turtle.
DSL however, is wonderful! It runs fast and does what I want it to do :;):

It's also perfect for a newbie like me.

Yeah I also have DSL on my old Laptop since some time, both Knoppix and Kanotix were really slow.

dsl rocks. here's y

hardware detection equivalent to knoppix
smaller, faster than knoppix.
use mydsl to customised handpicked apps, once the dsl depository's sizable, the world should notice.
all the build-in apps are there for a (very good) reason, once you figured it out, you just cant live without it. I hv been using knoppix for years, still could not figure out why Konqueror and Mozilla is still the chosen browser.

but damn! wassup with the "Damn" ?

Version 7 is awsome! I love the MyDSL files! They make everything extremy easy to install and use.

Keep up the superb work!
