A minor, dodgy Linux distro of the past that was active for about three years. There were a tiny number of news articles published about it, but I don't think they are enough to establish notability. The distro wasn't even carried by proper mirrors, having to resort to a file hosting service named DepositFiles to share the disk images. With this kind of services, downloaders have either to pay for a premium service, or use a free option that is intentionally made slow and cumbersome. Even most very small distros are able to get better hosting for their images. ilmaisin (talk) 11:52, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Software article of unclear notability. The linuxinsider.com and lifehacker refs are significant coverage, but do little to clarify why this distro is notable apart from its misleadingly similar name to Google's Chrome OS.Dialectric (talk) 04:05, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
