Browser choice in Linux Lite 2.2
#43
If space is at a premium vis CD, and top notch browser is preferred as default, i.e user first  experience, why include Libre Office Suit on the  Live CD. Assuming that is a space gobbler. A "lighter" wordpro could be used?

Again, a live CD gives maximum application, A great Kernel gives maximum chance of first time working on hardware/peripherals. It is no good having a great browser if the user can't get the video card , sound or wifi to work seamlessly.  That is what put me off linux years ago - too much to do to get up and running, too much trial and error and too little time.  MINT was too resource hungry and hence slow. Thankfully  I fell into Puppy without too much hassle.  However Puppy, although lightening fast and a set up dream,  to expand functionality for work became limiting  due to the need for PETS/SFS  etc .

Fortunately I eventually came across LL in a business article!! and the live CD worked straight out of the box, printer etc.  The rest as they say is history - a firm base from which to gradually learn matters Penguin.

Hence LL provides IMHO an invaluable entry point to the  "Dark Side" successfully optimising speed vs content for resource limited pcs.

Long may it continue but please do not forget its roots/mission and become too "heavy"

Most modern tablets are pretty low resource systems with the aim of extending battery life, and apart from  the wonder of touch screens, are not much more powerful than a lot of PCS of the early 2000s. Lesson there somewhere?
