hi
I am still learning but as a TC newbie appreciate the Intro page by dentonlt but did not read this forum correctly so missed the bit that he could not update the page...( I virtually spank myself)
SUGGESTIONS to Intro
http://tinycorelinux.com/intro.html1) Copy the Welcome to Tiny Core Linux section into it from
http://tinycorelinux.com/Yes this is a repeat but if a newbie clicks on Intro....no harm in repeating it.
2) IS TINY CORE FOR ME?--Not a 'turnkey' operating system
Suggest it reads--
Tiny Core can help you do what you need it to do. Tiny Core stays tiny by not including tools like a browser or word processor. Tiny Core can help you download and install those tools if you need them.
(I have deliberately left out really quickly to stop the US citizens wanting to sue me for suggesting TC will give them a faster internet...heh heh)
3) WHY IS TINY CORE SPECIAL?--Unusually Fast.
Consider this sentence
Experienced users can still install Tiny Core to disk, but Tiny Core can run out of 48 megabytes of RAM ... or less.
I infer --its runs out of MEANS some kind of technical error which is not likely............ so suggest it reads------
can run on 48 megabytes of RAM.
I have left off the ------"or less" bit as if it can run on less say what the specs are otherwise you may appear vague like some other operating system?
4) WHY IS TINY CORE SPECIAL?-Internet ready
Consider this sentence
You can even come back here and ransack the forums if you find you need help.
ransack is a link but suggest you change it to read (with the link)
You can even come back here and search the forums if you find you need help.
Maybe there is a joke between mods that TC is built by Vikings? This joke would be lost on TC newbies like me.

(Below is trivia = personal opinion)
I am still learning TC. I am using a persistent home, tce, opt
I have created a wiki page on cups1311 so I am not entirely wanting to appear like the whiner that I am .
As I sent a pm to dentonlt by mistake but am now aware he enjoys a joke......change whiner to winer
