Swift Linux gives that old computer a new lease on life!

Swift Linux is the best of all worlds! Swift Linux combines the superior software, hardware, and codec support of Linux Mint with a lightweight and user-friendly interface inspired by Puppy Linux and antiX Linux. You can have a lightweight distro WITHOUT sacrificing utility.

4-24-2012: Welcome to the new Mint-based Swift Linux! Version 0.2.0 of Swift Linux is now available! Swift Linux is now based on Linux Mint Debian Edition but retains the spirit of antiX Linux. The new Minty base improves hardware and codec support and continues to provide Swift Linux a software repository consisting of over 30,000 packages. However, Swift Linux is keeping the IceWM and ROX pinboard desktop environment to provide user-friendliness without bloat. Also, the Swift Linux ISO is still small enough to fit onto a CD.

Subsequent versions of Swift Linux will be provided frequently (usually no more than a few weeks between editions) but with only modest improvements with each iteration. Thus, Swift Linux will use the Agile software development methodology.
