Rep:
Vector's nice cause its small. I've only got a 1.7gig hd and the default install of Vector only took 400MBs. After installing things (Opera 7.21, gtk2, atk, pango, qt, mpg123, gaim, gtk-gnutella) I now have a little less than 900MBs left. I need monies for better puter.
Vector surely is a nice distribution especially for older machines.
Not many other distributions are that small yet contain a recent kernel, a
working GCC setup and a thoughtful selection of apps...and it flies
If I weren't a Peanut Linux man myself I'd probably use Vector.
