antiX is lighter on resources, actively developed and started the lite-weight trend that many major distros are now making available.

But I would say that wouldn’t I :)

I had a fun time with Fluxbuntu when it was still current; I’ve copied the theme & wallpaper over to my Debian and AntiX machines because I like the look & feel.

I have since gone back through mainline Ubuntu, Arch+Openbox, and more recently SLiTAZ (after hdd died on Arch box) – but might never have left Fluxy if it had continued development.

I am comfortable with hand edit of XML, so Openbox was not much of a learning curve – plus I dig the dynamic menus.

I do remember the FB theme being attractive, but it took over 3 minutes to boot up with the weird ubuntu/leaf hybrid clock/logo at boot. It’s probably a footnote in terms of a distro, but at least it warrants a fond mention now and again.

Fluxbox is the lightest and at the same time it has most features.
For me is eats 1/5 of openbox’s memory…
And the funny thing is that openbox cold boot eats more thah en17 …:)
