[TriLUG] small distribution for older laptop

[Adam Jennings]

I am a fan of Slitaz.  It is ultra-lightweight, I think the cooking ISO is
only 34mb.  and it used JWM and is very friendly on resources.  It has a
package management system (tazpkg) and more packages are being added to the
repos often.
