Way to clip the section where I said I boot to it from a USB key. So now you're criticizing *how* I use DOS?

"Hahaha" because not requiring junk equates to not requiring necessities?

The problem with ignorance, is that those who are, are usually ignorant to it. If you weren't, you'd realize Linux is just a kernel and has very minimal requirements.

One of my mail servers was running a very busy mail server and a website with 32 mb of RAM. If I felt like it, I could login and browse the web, download torrents. listen to music and whatever else I wanted while it handled thousands of e-mails a day, served PHP pages and performed backups.

Of course, you've only looked at the flashiest, major brand-new desktop-oriented distributions, not those intended for the minimalist.

If anyone actually cared to have it floppy sized these days, tomsrtbt would still be updated. Why don't you try googling that and learning something instead of arguing over things you don't understand?
