Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

[Guest]

Please note that Puppy outranks KANOTIX on the number of one-month downloads on Distrowatch. http://distrowatch.com/ I use KANOTIX as a standard because of its linage from the industry-standard KNOPPIX and because of its overall software excellence. Please note also that Puppy came from nowhere a short time ago and now ranks 21 out of 100 excellent Linux and BSD distributions, insofar as number of downloads during the last 30 days is concerned.

Hail Puppy!.

That 'Top 20' position is surely just a matter of time now.
Great to see Puppy thriving !
