Live CD looks pretty good
I downloaded the live CD and ran it on three different machines, all with good results. The defaults in Santa Fe Linux makes for an attractive desktop and most of the applications appear to be quite good and useful. However, unlike SimplyMEPIS the live CD is just that and it does not have an installation routine -- you have to purchase the full version.I was sufficiently impressed by what I saw that I am entertaining spending the money. That event is contingent upon the answers to a couple of questions that I have posed to Santa Fe Software about SMP for my dual-Athlon rig.Overall, this distribution looks promising to me, a Linux user for better than ten years.

Something is wrong with last review
I was just on the site and you can download a Live CD, But I understand it cant install. So how were or why were you trying?

On three different machines, I was unable to get the product to even install. On the fourth I could get it to install, but it didn't work with my printer or my wireless network card.
