excellent

I'm watching this on CrunchBang right now :)

nice review which will be faster bodhilinux or CB?, have 800MHz CPU running on 512MB RAM.

[InfinitelyGalactic]

@gychang00 Tough call, I think the debian base of CB would be slightly lighter than the Ubuntu base of Bodhi, but both distros are very light, so the difference is probably minimal.

[heminder]

i thought this was based on Arch, not Debian?

[adesca1]

@heminder ArchBang is based on Arch. :)

This is my the Linux Distro of choice. It's great for IT stuff, and I love the fact that you start with a blank slate. I've been running it as my main distro for non gaming stuff, and ive customized quite a lot and made it my own, and that is a really great feeling, you really feel like you know your pc and your os, and if something goes wrong, its probably your own fault. :)

[ecconz]

What's with all the dislikes? Tim from OSGUI been here?

[jmac217x]

AWESOME PHIL REFERENCE! :D

[stlsaint1]

As always nice review but i do feel that you did not give full props due to this OS. I agree with you that #! is not meant for new users but its resource allocation is unmatched by any other OS i have come across. More powerful than most mainstream OS's yet highly underrated. If you are a wanting to utilize all your systems resources for performance or a developer of any distro, #! is your OS!!

[InfinitelyGalactic]

@stlsaint1 Hi there. Sorry, I did touch on #!'s resource allocation, but thanks for clarifying that info, people should thumb up your comment, it adds to the review. Thx. :-)

Wow, nice distro and great review, the Openbox WM is looking much better than I thought

[TheBonaparte666]

A great review, as always. I'm gonna try this one out!

[omgich]

i'd like to see a review of Zorin OS; and btw, nice work!

[Linux4UnMe]

Top Review Buddy.

[sparkybluefox]

Your reviews are awesome and concise!

[Makousen]

Debian + Openbox? That is a guaranteed combination. Openbox is my favorite WM. It is very efficient and can look great. I love the minimal look of it. Debian, well...that does not need to be elaborated. Debian is my second favorite distro, second only to Arch.

[kjetlag]

nice distro

[aXimo]

I "liked"! Of course I care!

Thanks for the review, congratulations on 50th video, and keep it going!

[lindsaymobil22]

I love Crunchbang. I'm running it right now (the XFCE edition) on an old PC I got a hold of, its just so suitable! Perfect lightweight distro!

[GhindaUcigasa]

Nice to know you follow PhillyD. Also, your channel is a very professional looking one.

Keep up the good work sir!

[avalanche8700]

omg, man you're getting better and better at this, honestly your reviews are the best, one question how did you get so "knowledgeable " about linux??????

[InfinitelyGalactic]

@avalanche8700 With each video/distro that I look into, I learn a bit more...thanks for the props! :-)

[experimental0000]

@InfinitelyGalactic that's the way to do it :) awesome work, stuff like this also helps the 'noobs' and gives back to the community

[maKALLEchine]

@avalanche8700 lol

[robvelor]

Arch linux should be next :)

[daafies2]

"Fishing for something light weight"

[TableWolfMusic]

@vasilacheanton Does it come with the software centre which Debian adopted from ubuntu distros (rather than having just synaptic alone)?

[InfinitelyGalactic]

@TableWolfMusic It only has Synaptic out of the box.

[psyjax2]

This is my distro and i love it.

[HogRider357]

Nice review as always!

[OmenX13]

Good looking distro...

[xskydevilx]

Cool video!

[MrRafomaniac]

wow, great distro for working, I might try It for work.

Just one question does It have libre office?

[InfinitelyGalactic]

@MrRafomaniac It doesn't have LibreOffice, but it does have a quick link to install OpenOffice. You can of course download LibreOffice from their website and just install the .deb .

[proscribere]

@InfinitelyGalactic

idk if someone already said this, but you can install libreoffice with synaptic. :)

[RandomMan800]

Cool

[gychang00]

is this faster than bodhi on 800MHz older desktop?, don't like puppylinux.

[nw0n]

@gychang00 try tinycore
