"Elive is a live CD Linux distribution based on Debian that uses the Enlightenment window manager. Elive aims to provide an aesthetically pleasing environment with a full suite of desktop applications that runs efficiently on older systems. Its developers aren't finished yet, but they've come a long way with Elive since the release of 0.3 more than a year ago. This CD shows how beautiful distributions can become without being bloated."

I gave a nice donation to Elive and ran their distribution for a few months. I thought it was very nice.
It is based on Debian, so you have access to apt to install any additional programs you might need.
Elive could use a little polish in some areas, and their Control Panel, while nicely done, could use some human factoring work, but other than that, it was a very nice distribution to run. I definitely plan on trying it again after a couple more releases.

i thought foresight linux was a nice-looking distro. i gave it a shot, but couldn`t get my dsl to connect. i emailed ken vandine and received a very uninterested response for a solution. so, looks ain`t everything. so, based on experience, i don`t think i'll try this new elive release. in fact, i'm waiting for the final of the new pclinux.
