What do you like best about Puppy?

It make sold hardware usable and computers without hard drives or computers that you don't want to leave a trace on very usable. It boots fast and it just work once you do the initial setup each time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can never ever get the save file working correctly. I have tried multiple times over the years. I think it's best to sometimes just leave it on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
