Yoper Linux V2 was released a few weeks ago (July 13, 2004). After reading the release announcement on Yoper's website, I decided I had to try it. Yoper claims that version V2 "is the fastest Out-of-the-Box Linux system in the World".

I installed Yoper last night, and will agree with many things the reviewer noted, but will add this. This installation was simple, but it lacked the information needed to make the correct decisions.
What newbies want is information about each stage and the choices that they have to make.Without this information, either on screen or in a separate installation guide. The other thing I discovered was there was no "back" option on many screens. This wasn't a big issue as the installation was so fast, I could start over again, which I did 4 times, and still had the Yoper up and running quicker than I had Mandrake, Lidranet or Fedora C2.
The first thing I noticed about Yoper was that it was not slow, in-fact it was the fastest I have seen, both Linux and Windows.
As for the application selection, It seems Yoper has taken the Microsoft appoarch of providing an operating system, and then you go an select applications you require. It would be nice to be able to select and have installed at installation application, but this will not stop me using Yoper.
All in all, Yoper seems to be a fast solid system, what more could you ask for.
