On Custom NimbleX users can generate their own easy to use Linux OS with just a few clicks of a mouse. This works best in Firefox and for me everything worked great and the generated ISO was better than what I expected.

I believe this is quite revolutionary and I'd like to see other distros copying this features.

This is quite useful.

I made my own iso, am dl'ing it now.
It shouldn't take to long as it is only about 300 MB.
I will burn it later and report back on the usability.

I absolutely love the idea of doing this.

Looks like just another distro to me.
It uses gslapt with Slackware11 repos.
I checked the wifi-radar on the customization screen, but when I booted into the system it was not there.
I brought up gslapt to install it that way, but I was told it would not be installed due to the lack of unmet dependencies. wireless-tools
So I went to search for "wireless-tools", but all that came back was "wifi-radar" and some other useless results.

This could be a good option for somebody not using the bcm43xx pci-e module.
I still think the idea is great though.
I wish they had an option to choose which package manager you wanted, but I didn't see it.

I love the idea. I can see by the other posts that there could be some problems.
But my thought is that this must be a pretty new thing, so it may take a while to
work out the bugs. But still, for instance, I dream of a distro where there's an
option at login that says, "Which Desktop Environment Would You Like?"
And there would be three buttons: Gnome, KDE, and my new favorite, XFCE.
Plus, it would be cool if one could include the so-called non-free plug-ins which
are, at least regarding actual cash payments, free. Or, if one was feeling like
a purist one could choose the alternates that are totally free, in whole doctrinal
sense. And, one other feature, I'd like to be able to have several browsers
packaged in so that I could go back and forth between Firefox, Iceweasel and
Seamonkey, (tried to get it about Opera, but at last I must have lacked the
spiritual depth to fall in love with it). Anyway, I will be on the lookout for this
and see how it progresses. I support the cause, in theory, at least.

For me it worked perfectly
Considering this is the effort of maximum 2 people that did this for everyone asking nothing in return I don't think it could be better than this. I've seen some attempts from SuSe to do something cool but there is no comparison.

I do like the concept of point & click, customizable ISOs, but how many new Linux users are really going to know which packages they want or need to include in their package selection? It seems to me that this feature might be better for someone who's already familiar with Linux and the various packages that can be utilized.

As for the distribution itself, I haven't tried it so can't speak for that. I can say that I've run Slackware quite often during my experiences with Linux, and like it very much. However, I'm not a big fan of slapt-get for managing packages under Slackware oriented distributions.

In the end, it's like with all other distributions... each individual user needs to try it and make up his/her own mind about whether or not it's a good distribution for him/her.
