one person's reply to this article reads

CrunchBang is great. I ran that on a Dell Mini9 for years. It was as close to windows you could get in Linux.

Re: CrunchBang reviews and mentions

Steven Rosenberg, a writer for the Los Angeles Daily News and pretty much a Debian guy (though he just wrote a six-piece BSD opus recently), wrote up a review on CrunchBang here:

Not a bad write-up. Thanks, Steven.
