Vector Linux is a distribution based on the oldest Linux distribution available today - Slackware. It comes in two flavours - a freely downloadable ISO 'lite' version (which I used for this review) and a Deluxe CD edition which can be ordered from www.vectorlinux.com. The deluxe edition includes extras such as Gnome and KDE, as well as a whole pile of extra software.

I've run this distribution on a PII 266 with 64 MB RAM up to an AMD XP 1500+ with 256 MB RAM. Speed is fine in Fluxbox, IceWM, and XFce. Dropline-gnome was easily installed for the faster machines as well as many other packages using swaret.
