    Exclamation Foresight linux 2.0

    1. Has anybody else tried this distro ?

    2. What do you think of it?

    and finally 3. Was it snuck in by Microstuft to put people off ever using linux. I have tried many distro's, I use suse 10.3 on my main desktop, kubuntu 8.04 on my laptop (compaq presario v6000) and the stock xandros on my eeepc (advanced desktop).

    I decided to try foresight on a separate removable drive (desktop). I have never in my life found a distro so reticent to accept any setup (finds rt61 network but simply refuses to connect), Graphics all over the place. will not read my storage drive.

    Sorry if you think this is a rant (it is). but I feel if any newbies try this they will run away screaming never to return.

    tried it liked it enough for playing with though wont replace my current distro. and to number three i doubt that its that insidious. some how i think if microsoft wants to turn people off it just finds a way to make it look cheaper than linux, like the Asus EEE PC is now.
