I keep the CD in my laptop for when I need to get on the internet in seconds, rather than minutes, from turning it on. It’s a fairly new laptop, but Vista wants several minutes to load, and then it wants to download and install updates, and then it wants to reboot, and then it will think about letting me do what I want. Puppy - 75 seconds from hitting the on button to posting on FR.
When flying, the plane could be landing before I could get online with Vista.
Yes. It is very fast. Boots on my dad’s old 700 mHz laptop in under a minute.
And no “automatic update” crap.
Have you ever burned a Puppy multisession CD? That’s pretty slick, too. Nice being able to actually configure the setup on your live CD and save data...
