I hope they pump in more application so that it can be used in production laptops as well. It is damn resource efficient and helps when you are doing resource intensive jobs, apart from obvious security benefits that you mentioned.Arindam Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081209827341326458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-68202286503772240352013-12-04T03:05:14.772-08:002013-12-04T03:05:14.772-08:00This is what sets Tinycore apart from the rest...y...This is what sets Tinycore apart from the rest...you can run it directly from the cd without an "install".

Also, I have noted that more or less both Puppy and Tiny Core perform similarly on the same hardware, say a P3. But, Puppy works out of the box! Even I am running Puppy Wary for quite sometime and Puppy Precise recently on my P4 desktop without any trouble what-so-ever.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />ArindamArindam Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081209827341326458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-36117701612293769182012-11-27T05:40:06.603-08:002012-11-27T05:40:06.603-08:00Hi arindam sen,

While in Tiny Core Linux(TCL) & DSL there doesn't seem to be Wireless Card support out-of-box & also even though I tried a lot for the Printer I could not succeed in getting it to work.<br />Thanks For the Article.Mufeednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6402517875283707603.post-3857354152717144872012-11-18T22:42:45.827-08:002012-11-18T22:42:45.827-08:00Hi Phunchung, Once you install all the required ap...Hi Phunchung, Once you install all the required applications, both Puppy and Tiny Core are equivalent. I am using Puppy Precise in one of my P4 computers and it works well, runs flash (Adobe flashplugin 10, which is lighter), has multimedia codecs (in built), easy to install but to update grub you need to follow my instructions (check my article on Puppy Precise).
