I agree. I think Storm Linux is a great product ... (but I work for Stormix so I might be a bit biased :)
Storm Linux 2000 is based on Slink, although there are a few new or upgraded packages thrown in there. There will be a Potato-based release not too much longer after Potato reaches stable, although our second release will depend on how long it takes for the developers to put together the second-generation installer and administration tools. We have released all of our work under the GPL, as we hope not to compete with Debian but to have a cooperative relationship. A PowerPC version of Storm Linux would be the coolest, but I'm afraid we don't have anything like that in the works right now. > > No no no... > > Storm Linux is an -excellent- product from all I've seen of it.
