Linux When Knoppix was first released it was heralded as revolutionary in the Linux world. Its autodetection and configuration capabilities were unsurpassed. Many of my colleagues remarked that if 'KNOPPIX can't do it, Linux can't do it'. Theoretically, one would be able to get a Knoppix CD, pop it into an arbitrary system, run it, save one's data to a partition, USB stick, etc....), reboot and the existing system would be left completely as it was before the CD was placed in the system.

Windows Advanced Server on a Celeron 233?
by Robert Smith on Thu 15th Jan 2004 15:40 UTC

Hmmn, windows XP needs more than a 233mhz processor, so how can the reviewer be running a windows server OS on this configuration?

Overall the review was ok, but focussed too much on what it wasn't and also did not look at the distro in the correct context.

Inaccuracies do occur, but basing a negative opinion on a inaccurate fact is not correct.
