pocket hockey

well i decided to try out a pocket OS. while a custom DOS pocket OS sounds cool, and they are, i found one that is rather usefull.
besidesing being just a toy or experiment this one has a number of uses.

it is a small distro of linux that is very easy to use

simply download the ISO image and burn. no need to install on a hard drive. runs very fast off a CD-ROM.

hell i am even posting this message with it.

has basic X windows and other tools and stuff

the only bad part is that some mice are a bit funky, and may not work.

what other pocket operating systems are out there? what have you used.

i know of another linux one that uses just 2 floppies and a number of DOS ones.

also it is a rathter big file, 47MB so you cant really make this a bootable floppy.

I thought this was some kind of euphemism for masturbation.

Doesn't run off a floppy, worthless.
