I met Robert Shingledecker, the creator of both DSL and Tinycore Linux at SCaLE.
In fact, I bought two ancient ThinkPad TP240s from him with Tinycore installed.

At $50 each they made nice 8 year old "netbooks." :-) Tinycore worked surprising
well and had a simple way of downloaded addition programs to extend the base.
Even had a light-weight version of Inkscape.

Tinycore, puppy and DSL are fun to play with, but not too practical in the long
run. Sort of like driving a Peel P50
