Star Xandros 2.0 - An end to Windows? An adventure in Open source
Linked by Chris Nabinger on Wed 14th Jan 2004 20:23 UTC
Xandros I'm a windows user by nature, I've been playing around with Linux for a little while, I'm no Expert in any way but I've used quite a few distro's. The first distro I ever stuck with for any amount of time Was Xandros 1.0, which a friend provided for me. Except for the fact that it ran an old version of KDE it was perfect for me, but the old KDE crippled my work. Enter Xandros 2.0.

You dink, of course Gentoo is going to install slow on a VIA processor, it's a source based distro, but you probably don't know that you can install the whole thing with binary files using GRP.
It takes me about 40 minutes to get a headless base system up and running on a Athlon XP with stage3.
Of course it takes many many hours to install X and KDE.
