I want to get my old Asus Epc 701 with 2 GB of RAM going, hopefully to put some Ham software on it. It used to use XP. I wanted to try the talking Arch I downloaded, but it cannot boot that kernel, and I didn't know where an older one is. I tried Puppy Linux, but that had problems too, so I found AntiX. It seems to work well, and if it were talking, I could see how I like it. I don't know if the limited repository would eventually be a turn off.

Just for my own interes: whats the reason to use it if there is no basic way by default for you to interact with that system? Any specific stuff it provides? Or any functionality?
