 Introducing.. Myself
Sub_title: Who the hell am I?? |
|
I've been around for a couple months, but no one really knows me. Anyways, I started work the computers in fourth grade when I did simple HTML, then in fifth grade, I learned QBASIC and worked on a DOS GUI, Shell, or whatever you want to call it. I bought a Dell laptop and tried MEPIS on it, It was easy to install but didn't seem better than Windows. A year or so passed and Windows was slowing down so I got Ubuntu and Installed it and XFCE, and It was my main OS for a few months. After a while Ubuntu messed up, and a friend who has Dial-up recommended Puppy, I got it, and decided to use it. It seemed great but very small, and certain parts weren't how I wanted them, so I remastered and thats how DCL was born. I think Puppy is the perfect base for a Linux distro because its so small and expandable!

Hi Brandon, welcome around.
Just read your self-introduction, which left me curious to know what is DCL -- it appears to be your own Linux distro, but a search with Google and in Distrowatch gave no hint. Would you care to explain?
Thanks and all the best.

The Meaning of DCL |
|
I'm guessing that DCL stands for "Damn Cute Linux." Any other suggestions?

Actually it's "Dead Cow Linux" and it's a remaster of Puppy. Brandon has a sense of humour!
