I tried dsl a year or two ago and it sucked. They really did a good job
improving it.
It isn't really designed (or recommended) for the hard drive install, but it
has always worked well for me.
I also installed it on a six year old celeron PIII 450 laptop. Easy install
and everything works much faster than any of the many other distros I've used
on it.
If you don't have the money to buy a box...or you need a simple business card
CD distro for use on other computers, I would recommend it.
Pure knoppix is just too bulky.

candidate.synaptic had to regress apt version for updates. have also tried the
embedded dsl version. emulated a 2 GHz pentium 2 , LOL :) much slower, but it
would allow M$ users a test drive of linux.100 mb unzipped. arnold has dsl
installed on 233mz 96 mb ram hp,with removable scsi drives.
