[00:04] <Takyoji> I suppose there's been quite a handful of new distros in the past year
[00:04] <Takyoji> All of which look a bit appealing
[00:16] <Takyoji> There needs to be some type of theming/customization format; so that there isn't all these distros that are just different themes and different packages installed by default..
[08:28]  * Takyoji wonders if mini burnable CDs are still sold..
[08:32] <Takyoji> Yay http://www.walmart.com/ip/Memorex-24x-Write-Once-Pocket-CD-R-Spindle-For-Data-50-Disc-Spindle/10730659
[08:36] <Takyoji> The annoying thing though is that they're just about the same price as regular discs..
[08:46] <Takyoji> I'm trying to think; for secure reasons, should I: have a thin client boot the OS from a CD, but with the web-browser pre-installed; or, have the thin client boot from a CD, but install the web browser automatically on each boot (to ensure the most recent version); or, install the OS to a flash drive and have it update automatically and have a persistent storage?
[08:48] <Takyoji> since the web browser will be the only point of the distro in the first place; for interacting with an inventory system via a web-based interface.
[09:17] <Takyoji> Also, I wonder how "hard" it would be to make a distro from relatively nothing.
[09:17] <Takyoji> Compiling Linux, X11, etc
[19:39] <kermit> its compiling the list of URLs to the sources that i think would be the hardest part
