I was going to install Desktop LX from Lycoris for grins the other day. 
Looking for a distribution that was close to windows for newbies, but
had the guts of Debian.  However you state its based on Caldera 3.1.  I
was under the impression it was the old Redmond Linux based on Corel
(which was based on Debian) and why I was considering an install to see
if it was recommendable to others.

Can someone clarify this?
