I like the first one, very snappy.
Second one all I get is sound.

With the second one, I get the full video including the moving images.
Rather good it is too.

The second one was good if you got past the 60 second countdown.

The second one was really good, but I had a 99 countdown before it started

Nice video (the first one). Maybe it can use a suggested URL towards the end, say, distrowatch.com/puppy ?

The first one is, in my opinion a no-go. Especially if I am going to be promoting a product.
In the Puppy Logo section -- The "for Dummies" line of books. That's a very well recognized series of books. Did they come out with a Puppy Linux for Dummies edition, and if so where can I get a copy.
Too bad, I liked the first one better than the second one, which I found amusing if over the top. I might put that one on.

No - I created that from a 'image generator' about the time we first started making manuals
This is the closest we have presently

That's what I thoght.
A bit of fun perhaps, but rather misleading in my opinion, especially in a promo piece. Someone viewing the video might think that there is an actual Puppy Linux for Dummies book that he can go out and buy.

Or someone might actually think there is a finalized version of Puppy 4

When BK first started talking about Quirky, I thought it was a personal project targeted at specific hardware like netbooks. As such, it had a reduced driver package.
But the recent Quirky development sounds more like a general-purpose Puppy. Does anyone know what Quirky may be missing?
Does Lupu have the full driver package?

Quirky is a lite version of T-pup, which is the latest T2 release, Like puppy 4 was based on T2, So if you want a full version then download Tpup when released, I did package it a few times already.
wary is the same a quirky but with a older xorg 7.3, that was used in series 4 and has been really great.
