speed - About 22 second boot with gui and webserver. (redhat takes
1:10mins, without webserver!)

size - about 1.1GB with gnome, internet programs and webserver.

stability - as bug free as possible, secure, and never crashes.

clean - not based on any distro (built from scratch), so doesn't contain
scraps & bugs of other distros.


With David's post,

I'm still getting there with a lot of things.
eg: I need cd writing tools - currently to use my cd writer I have to
reboot to Redhat 9.


Yes, it is gnome centric. However, I want to install the KDE lib's so
that I can run KDE applications, like Quanta. I'll have a look at the
app's you mentioned too. However, openoffice appears to be looking quite
nice on Jedo & 1.1.2 is much faster than the old version.
