Relevance: 0.77
The first thing that puzzles someone new to Linux is the concept of Linux distribution. When you want to get Linux on your computer, what you install is actually a Linux"distribution" that contains a Linux kernel and some applications like Firefox (web browser) and Open Office (word processor and spreadsheet). To help you understand what is a Linux distribution I will take the Windows world as an example.

Linux Where You'd Least Expect It

Relevance: 0.75
OK. You've heard of Linux. It's another operating system for a computer. But why use it when you can choose between Windows and Macs? Unless you run business-class servers, Linux isn't really something consumers really need to hear about, right? Well, if that's what you think Linux is, you couldn't be further from the truth. Look around you. Linux is everywhere, but you may not know it.

Relevance: 0.75
There's no dearth of Linux distributions for desktop users or even for running high availability servers. But if you are a do-it-yourself computer user, your choice of Linux distros is fairly limited. You can build Linux from scratch with Linux from Scratch or compile your own set of packages with Gentoo. But if you want a distro that teaches you the basics of Linux as you set it up; is well documented, lightweight, and zippy; and has a dependency-resolving packaging system, you need Arch Linux.

Let's look at it linguistically, to say"GNU slash Linux" isn't the norm, typically when a word uses a slash the slash is not pronounced..."

Puppy Linux 2.14: This Hound Has Teeth

03/06/2007  IIIIIIIIII
Relevance: 0.74
Worthy Linux distributions from Ubuntu and SUSE run very well, but they are also rather large collections (though certainly not as bloated as Windows is!) and this has led to the creation of some smaller incarnations like Damn Small Linux and Feather Linux. The best of these lite Linux versions, though, has got to be Puppy Linux, which, in its 2.14 version, shows that it can run very comfortably with the big hounds.
