1. Loads, even to RAM, in under two minutes, faster than that to run straight from CD.
2. Recognizes, even on CD, just about any wireless network card you can throw at it.
3. Has a good selection of software, and given that you can run it live, from USB, or install it to disk from the CD, it is easy to install or just use as is (as I am doing right now.
4. It’s fast, and I think it is a blend of being easy enough, yet fast enough. You can get smaller Live CDs, but they take more tinkering and they don’t have as many good apps. You can get larger live CDs, but they don’t boot or run as fast as antiX.
I consider this the #1 top Live CD overall and one of the best systems around. You can run it either as a stable system or you can also customize and build your own system from it. What other system can do all of these things well? Some can do certain tasks better, perhaps, but on the balance this is the best live CD you can get!
The appearance of this version is better than ever – the nicest boot splash screen I’ve seen yet, thanks to the great artists in the antiX community!
