Hi frourio,frourio wrote:My overall impression so far is that Puppy is an enthusiast's tinkering tool/toy (nothing wrong with that) but not really a daily driver, other than for perhaps a very niche crowd.
My experience is exactly opposite.
In last 3 years I have converted few of my friends to puppy (12 now, will be 13 if the friend I gave usb yesterday likes it).
They are using puppy as their daily driver.
They just use browser, libreoffice, gimp, vlc mostly.
I tried to get them on forum, but no interest...
I believe trouble comes when tinkering.
For the tinkerers find it hard to get things going.
As puppy does work his own way, so many times suggestions straight out of google fail miserably.
But once you get to know small things that are different in puppy it should be easy.
But what should I know, I am just a noob, who was computer illiterate 3 years ago, tinkering and using puppy on my self assembled PC as my daily driver.
Have fun mate.
