Dave, i'm quite impressed with puppy linux. It's clean, installs well, i have network and sound out of the box (wireless included, on the laptop), and doesn't chew a lot of cpu or ram. It's early days, and with no rt kernel, more administrative than audio centric, but it's still worth smiling about for a more generic useage. For smaller, older, and handheld machines in particular, i can see it filling an important niche.

Alex.
