It is. Running the openbox version myself. Works a charm on the old nettie. In fact, it runs better than wheezy minimal/openbox. Needs a tit more ram (75 Mb whereas deb does it with 40) but boots up in 16 flat. Only slitaz and rexbang match this.
Seriously. It's one of the best os'es I ever tried. Deleted some autostart aps in this one. Very clean. Very snappy. 0.8.5 ey ? Sounds good. Xfce4 it will be ?
Like you said, this arch version is very userfriendly to begin with. If only the install. Should attract a lot of linux users imho. Haven't decided on a firewall yet. Got any suggestions?
no, I have no idea what is a good firewall for Linux. Linux is not my first OS. OSX is. I'm sure there are plenty of Linux users though who would have some thoughts on the matter. I only run Linux in VirtualBox.
Apple. I have quite a few apple "customers" these days. Not like windows-users with f..... up rigs, but still, increasing. Mostly costs though. Crisis allover the place I guess. Hey, some dust gathering dino with , say, 256 Mb ram could be great fun you know. Wouldn't think of putting ubuntu and any of its derivatives on it though. However. Karmic and pre minimals could cut it . Naah. At least debian. Businesscard that is. Slitaz, pup, dsl,.....
I've thought about buying a small laptop just for Linux but then I figured I would just be constantly installing various distros on it like I do in VirtualBox. VB is just easier.
btw, there is more than one version of Manjaro. The one here is 0.8.2 XFCE. There is also a 0.8.2 LXDE. I don't know what the LXDE version looks like or if it comes with conkys or what themes may be included.
Very snappy.
