First off, I have to admit that I am looking at CrunchBang ++ with a bit of nostalgia.
I used to think that CrunchBang back in the day was the jam, and I ran CB specifically for years.
But I will admit now, that nostalgia aside, the new reiteration of CB is just as awesome and simple as it ever was.
If you visited the website, you will find that all the screenshots of this "no frills" Linux based OpenBox distribution are grey and lifeless.
While this is how CB "ships", it takes very little to liven it up.
Here's my desktop with CB ++, and mild changes to make it not so "dish water grey":
Why would you get CB ++, besides nostalgia? It's very light on it's feet.
Fully booted, it was only using 464 mb of ram, shown here...
I'm enjoying my trip into nostalgia, for sure, but I am also impressed with how snappy this thing is.
If you want to try it out yourself, here's the website for you: https://crunchbangplusplus.org/
