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'm interested in trying this distro out - I've been using Mandrake, but am finding that it's getting a bit "old", and the comments about Vectors speed are quite appealling.
I want Gnome installed, but as I only have a dialup connection, I would have to buy the deluxe CD. That's okay and no problem at all, but I read somewhere that the Gnome requires a bit of extra downloading. Can someone confirm whether or not this is true, and if so, how much is needed?
Thanks.
