I, for one, would love it if you would do something new for the EeePC's! I have two 900A's and would like to see a new OS optimized for them.

Pemasu, I am searching for a Puppy for my EeePC 900a, which either has or could have added easily to it all the function keys and fan controls, etc. I know you are now busy with other things, but could you recommend if that would be either of your Puppies; Polar or Snow or Ice, and what else would n...

Well, let's see now... Started this obsession of computing with a Timex Sinclair (remember those?), than had a VIC 20 for awhile. In 1992 because of Educational needs, bought a used Compaq DeskPro 286 and ran DOS. Growing extremely weary of the programming/command line OSes, in 1994 I bought an Appl...

When, and possibly why, did this all change over to Slacko in the stead of Lupu? What did I miss? Is this version of Lupu gone now?
Thanks,

T-Mobile sucks big time. I am just coming to the end of a two year contract with them. Took them a year almost to the day to replace my faulty phone, a Samsung 749~Fire model, and they charge you twice for voice messages: once when someone leave them and then again when you retrieve them. I "ki...

Currently using Ubuntu 11.04, but will most likely drop it after the new version comes out. I have been playing with Feduntu (Fewt is involved heavily and it is now a fully rolling release), PCLinuxOS, OpenSUSE and Arios. I like PCLinux OS and OpenSUSE better, so far, but Feduntu is definitely not o...

Hey Ttuuxxx,
Might I ask you why the dev-x for this Pup is the smaller one (116mb) and not the dev-x_2 larger one (139mb) that got posted later for the original LUPU?
I mean, what makes the difference/decision?
Thank a lot!

Thanks for sending the link! Man, this is a fast runner! Shame that you had to modify your original. Does this include the Instant Update .pet or should it/does it need to be installed?
Thanks for your work and assistance.
