Sounds like a good idea.  I've playd with quite a few of the "smaller"
distros. Unfortunately most of them are gone now. My favorite so far has
been Peanut and Libranet. I almost downloaded Lycoris (I believe formerly
known as Redmond Linux) but it just looked too un-Linux, too much like

Libranet is something I haven't tried, same with Gentoo.  Has anyone
tried Lycoris?  I notice their laptop is sold out.  (Apparently they did
a smart thing - picked up some old PII laptops from IBM cheap, and
resold them complete with IBM warranty.)

Maybe a good subject for June - small distribution month where anything
BUT RedHat, Mandrake, SuSE, Debian, etc. can be shown.

What do you think?

Cheers,

James
