| SimplyMEPIS Linux
MEPIS LLC and MEPIS Linux were founded by industry veteran Warren Woodford in November 2002. Warren had tried several distributions of Linux, but found that they all fell short of his vision for how a Linux desktop should work. Inspired by his experience as a NeXT developer, Warren decided to try his hand at creating a Linux distribution that “just works.” The first version of MEPIS Linux was released to the public in May 2003. By September 2003, MEPIS had jumped to #10 at distrowatch.com.

Run very nicely from an IDE Compact Flash drive via a method we call "frugal install"
Transform into a Debian OS with a traditional hard drive install
Run light enough to power a 486DX with 16MB of Ram
Run fully in RAM with as little as 128MB (you will be amazed at how fast your computer can be!)
Modularly grow -- DSL is highly extendable without the need to customize
