Puppy Linux 5.6 "Precise" 發布
Puppy Linux是另外一種Linux發行。它的不同之處在于，Puppy是格外的小，然而又充滿了特性。Puppy能從64M的存儲設備啟動，并且，整套系統 都能在內存中運行。有很多自啟動運行光盤的Linux發行，它們需要不停地從光盤讀取數據才能運行，Puppy與它們不一樣，Puppy整個裝載在內存 中。這意味著，所有的應用程序一眨眼的功夫就能啟動，并且立即對用戶的輸入作出響應。Puppy Linux能從flash卡或者是任何的USB存儲設備啟動（這是flash-Puppy），或者光盤（這是live-Puppy），或者Zip disk及LS/120/240 Superdisk（這是zippy-Puppy），或者軟盤（這是floppy-Puppy），或者硬盤（這是hard-Puppy）。它甚至可以使用 一張多區段燒錄的CD-R/DVD-R以將所有內容保存回CD/DVD中。
Bary Kauler has announced the release of Puppy Linux 5.6 "Precise" edition, a minimalist distribution and live CD featuring a customised Openbox window manager and built from Ubuntu 12.04 binary packages: " It's out! Our latest and greatest Puppy. Relative to Precise Puppy 5.5, this latest pup brings some exciting new features, including a new X.Org video wizard (with forced-reboot recovery mechanism), new non-PAE 3.2.44 kernel with lots of analog modem drivers (making this an excellent pup for those still on dial-up Internet), many more applications internationalized, many applications upgraded, lots of bug fixes, and so on. Plus, a huge number of fixes and improvements at the infrastructure/system level. In all, a great new version of the Precise series."
