Review on linuxquestions

Linuxquestions has opened a new section where you can review your favorite distro...

I've taken the liberty to review arch
http://www.linuxquestions.org/reviews/s … product=18

If you do not agree with me, have other + or - stuff to post about using arch, you can post a reply

I've used the 'about' text from this site as part of the review, I hope you don't mind me doing that apeiro???

Re: Review on linuxquestions

Perhaps you could have gone into more detail. I didn't consider that a review of archlinux.. you just quoted the webpage and commented on the quotes. If you're going to "review" than tell us about your entire experience.

I bought a dog the other day...I named him Stay. It's fun to call him...  "Come here, Stay! Come here, Stay!" He went insane. Now he just ignores me and drools.

Re: Review on linuxquestions

yes in future please refer to the official "Linux Distro Review" standard as proposed by the 904 committee and later ratified by IEEE in 1997  under the name 904.6z.

Re: Review on linuxquestions

sinister, then why don't you post your real review below?

don't you think it's better to have a small review there than no review at all? now already 86 people have looked at it and might be interested in trying arch, otherwhise some or many of those 86 would've never heard of arch... (not in the near future at least)

if you look at some of the other reviews there, you can see that this is not even close to being the shortest review...

Re: Review on linuxquestions

lol I was just kiddin man.

I was being a bit sarcastic because as far as I know there isn't any standard, and a review should just be what you feel like saying about it -- which is what you did.
