NewsForge reviews College
Linux 2.3, a Slackware-based distribution from Robert Kennedy College
in Delémont, Switzerland. "CollegeLinux comes with some software
you might expect, like a 2.4.20 kernel, OpenOffice.org software suite,
KOffice, nfs, Samba, and openssh. It also comes with a few things you
might not expect. For example, while Wine is considered an option on many
other Linux distributions, it is included here. I guess many students have
a Windows partition on their machines. Having Wine installed means that
many Windows programs (the ones that don't choke under Wine, that is) will
be available under CollegeLinux. Good idea."
