BeatriX-03

It is the Beatrix Potter type of distribution.

It is no wonder this little distribution got 545 points out of 750 for its less than 200 MB content.

Based on Knoppix it detects old hardware easily and boots up quickly.

Its partitioning is basic for old computer with less than 20 GB.

I use it as a demonstration Mini CD.

Compared to Damn Small Linux (DSL) it can be used on a daily basis and has open office 1.1.

It even detected a LCD but with a warning screen for possible incompatibility.

If you have an old computer in the garage this will make it “born again”.

Try it for fun!

Unfortunately nobody seems to maintain it.

Somebody should activate it and include some children games with Disney mentality

gOS-02

gOS-3.1-gadgets scores 740 out of 750 points and for a young newbie who spends most of the time browsing there is nothing to compare with.

All Google gadgets are displaced with an apple look and feel.

It is an excellent distribution which boots up fast unlike the previous gOS, has sound effects too.

If one wants to go dizzy in space he can go and download gOS space, which has excellent graphic effects. 

My graphic card could barely manage its effects.

One should have a good graphic card if one is using it.

It is excellent if you are going for utility rather than Linux savvy!
