[AktiviX] BLAG - Blag Linux and GNU distro

[Charlie Harvey]

Hey max,

Came accross the BLAG distro a coupla weeks ago (maybe from this list?), but I 
haven't had a play yet...

I normally give ppl morphix || knoppix - they're great coz ppl can arse about 
with *nix without getting rid of their beloved outleak/orifice, which makes 
them more likely to try it. I think that's a great way of handling the FUD that 
goes on about getting rid of win. 

I reckon it'd be awesome to make a 1 cd mdk distro that'd boot off cd as well 
as installing normally, but like you I haven't got much time to put into 
building distros - AFAIK its quite a huge task :-(

BTW around 60% of pcs shipped in Thailand have linux desktops 
http://www.linuxinsider.com/perl/story/32110.html . I may have to consider 
moving to a less mainstream OS ( http://bbspot.com/news/2000/12/smart.html ) ;-
