Linux Outlaws review CrunchBang
The latest episode of the Linux Outlaws podcast features a review of CrunchBang Linux. The hosts, Dan and Fab have both tried the latest CrunchBang release and discuss the distribution at some length. It is a really great review and the guys do a good job of dispelling some of the misunderstandings around the subject of the how “lightweight” CrunchBang is.
For anyone not familiar with the show (is there anyone not familiar with the Outlaws?), Linux Outlaws is a podcast in which the presenters take a “laid-back” look at Linux and the Open Source scene. The presenters have good chemistry and the show is entertaining and insightful. The production quality is excellent and the show is released most weeks. It is well worth a listen, or even a subscription within your favourite podcast catcher.
If you do listen to the review and you would like to discuss any of what was said, you might want to join the growing community of Linux Outlaws listeners by visiting the Linux Outlaws forums. There is a dedicted thread available for discussing this episode.

Linux..is absolute BULLSHIT !!
Why do I need to hunt around for a special “package” or driver for 4 to 5 hours…to simply play a DVD…or listen to music ????
I’ll take the insecure Windows ..or a MAC platforms…..anyday
“Ya plug the shit it in…and it WORKS..first time !!!”
I don’t care what costs a few bucks more…nor do I have high expectations…or the time..for anything that appears to be “free” on this planet…
Sorry folks..I’ve tried…CB / Fedora / SUSE / Easy fookin’ Peasy / Ubuntu this and that distributions….on five different computers…to no avail..
I’m done..
Linux is a “toy” that will never hold a candle to its monolithic and domineering predecessors…unless everyone gets on the same page..which I thought was the idea in the first place…LOL ??
I run a small business…and could never rely or trust any Linux O/S or server…PERIOD !!
Do the math ??
