I've heard a nothing but the best reviews for this new distro. I'll have to try it out for myself sometime. Some DeLUG folks have also considered using it instead of Knoppix, although mostly with some blurred legalities involved with Knoppix (ie "IF YOU PLAN TO COMMERCIALLY USE OR DISTRIBUTE (AND SELL) THE SOFTWARE, YOU HAVE TO ACQUIRE THE NECESSARY LICENSES AND PERMISSIONS FROM ALL SOFTWARE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS OF NON-FREE SOFTWARE COMPONENTS..."). The rest of the text can be found at the Knoppix website after choosing a download mirror. As far as I know, Mepis doesn't utilize any "non-free software components." -- + David "Huertanix" Huerta + DeVry Linux User Group + http://www.devrylinux.org On Mon, 16 Feb 2004, Michael Havens wrote: > > it was like SOOOOO cool.
