Has anyone tried out firefly linux? It is based on arch so I am guessing supa-fast boot up? ~15 seconds? I will probably wait for the first stable before grabbing myself a copy but it sounds quite cool and I was wondering if anybody had any reviews?

I am currently using Arch linux plus LXDE on my Dell Mini 9 netbook. It boots quickly and is stable; no complaints. Firefly seems kind of unnecessary; you can install Arch itself (set up exactly how you like it) quite easily using the Beginner's Guide:

In general I am wary of any project that's a "shortcut for installing Arch."
