Lookin fer a new #distro but don't wanna choose between #KDE, #GNOME, or some obscure #WM the arch kids are into this week? Maybe you've heard some old greybeards grumblin about #enlightenment but figured it was just some hippy thing. What if there was an easy way to get yer hands on the tried and true, real enlightenment window manager, #e16, without all that configuratin bidniss? If yer lookin for a well polished #debian with a UI your friends prolly don't have, maybe take this Elive thing nobody's talkin bout fer a spin.

Much like any good magic trick, the more you know about what's been tweaked and streamlined behind the scenes, the more you can appreciate all that's gone into the making of this distro. This has been a one-man project from before the time I learned of it sometime early 2005 in the #e channel on freenode. Much though and dedication has gone into the design of each release since then.

Go check it out, it's free if you don't wanna help with production.
