I have. But it is an OS for a very specific purpose. People dealing
in audio/video editing, music publishing etc etc., along the same
lines would love it. The beauty of the OS is that on my Pentium
II-450 it boots in 8 secs flat from power-up and it has a readily
unix readable file system. The downside is that it is not totally open
source and does not have an exhaustive set of drivers; infact far
far from it.
