Besides the fact that antiX 16.1 comes with all 173 bug fixes and security patches implemented by the Debian Project in the new Debian GNU/Linux 8.7 "Jessie" release, but without the systemd init system, the distribution is using the long-term supported Linux 4.4.10 kernel customized with a fbcondecor splash.

Additionally, the new antiX version includes two applications, namely live-usb-maker and live-kernel-updater, which allow users to create a Live USB disk of antiX that you can use to run the operating system without having to install it on your personal computer, and update the kernel without the need to reboot the PC.

Meh, I'll stick with Calculate Linux for now.

    This entire post was pointless.

    You can't even agree with somebody without insulting them. Just take a chill pill and don't hit that 'post' button.

    I pilfered the wife's purse, and all her chill pill bottles are empty.
