*All tests were running in Vmware with 1024mb of RAM for the OS in live cd mode*
First Impressions After the LONG bootup i finally got on this system, the first impression is how sexy it looks with its carbon black feel. However this isnt really essential in a Pentest OS as your are sacrifising performance. It definately looks nicer than backtrack however doesnt have as many tools and isnt as stripped down as Backtrack in terms of having unneeded Apps. In my opinion im not going to stick with this until it gets better so i will wait till the future. Pros - Looks nice
Cons - The sleek look is heavy on the RAM usage and is slower than Backtrack on bootup and running speeds. - Unstable crashes frequently - Although the system looks nice the bootup has random messages poping up such as 'Scanning Clam AV' and a ugly boot menu.
Thanks for the review. I was going to try it today but I don't think I will. And I agree with you it looks very beautiful but if it doesn't do the job good then why should we use it... ;)
