There's nothing like having an artist in the family. PCLinuxOS is having a
contest to select a new logo image for the OS. Lisa created an Armadillo
image and a couple of penguin-as-glass-chess-piece images as I'm typing this
they're visable here:

or, if this gets truncated, use this one

I've tried DSL and STX on my old 266 MHz Pentium box and been pleased with
them. STX has "more stuff" but it's windows manager
http://ede.sourceforge.net/page/
is sometimes a little buggy.
I've discovered three more distros I plan to try-out on the old box within
the next few days/weeks.

Lisa and I are both using Slimbrowser which runs on IE's dlls and we've
noticed that we get security warnings any time we visit Linux sites that
have been around for a while. It's almost as though IE is keeping a list of
them. When she tried to upload her contest entry images from her XP box,
with Slimbrowser, the upload failed on every attempt. After about three
days, I suggested she put the images on a floppy disk, log into the site
with the Linux box and try uploading them. They uploaded without a hitch on
the first try. Now I wish we'd thought to try uploading them with Firefox
from the XP box.
