The aim of this experimental Linux distribution is to provide to the student population at large an operating system that is easy to install and use and provides an alternative to the traditional commercial operating systems. CollegeLinux is a Slackware derived Linux (2.4.23) distribution on a single CD that weighs in at 600 MB.

The whole review seems a bit off. I run SUSE 8.2 on an athlon 550 with 128 megs of ram and I have only a couple of performace issues. Samba through konqueror slows the whole machine down while transfering files, though the speed of the transfer itself is fine. I can't get the nivida drivers reinstalled. I run KDE 3.1.4 and window resizing is easy.
The only other time I have problems with using the machine is when I set seti to use 50% of the processor, and everythings else slows down.
