The third alpha build of TinyMe 2009, a minimalist desktop distribution based on Unity Linux (a fork of PCLinuxOS) is now available for testing: “TinyMe 2009 ‘Acorn’ Alpha 3. TinyMe is a Unity-based distribution targeted at older computers and people who want a very light and fast desktop environment. There are two ISOs being made available. One is compressed with gzip and the other with LZMA. The method of compression is the only difference between the two ISOs. While LZMA has a higher rate of compression, I have been informed it is not as nice on memory usage. I would strongly appreciate it if people would download both ISOs, burn them both, test both on as old a machine as they can.” Here is the full release announcement. Download: TinyMe-2009-Alpha-3.i586.GZIP.iso (243MB, MD5).
