Comment on Bodhi, A minimal, enlightened, Linux

Comments

That's funny. I never even knew Bodhi was a Sanskrit word that is usually translated as "enlightenment."

In the 2000 RPG-of-the-year Baldur's Gate II, Bodhi was one of the major villains, a sadistic vampire character.

So the name has always had an eerie/negative connotation for me.

And Bodhi was the name of Patrick Swayze's character in "Point Break", so in a mind of a movie geek it makes total sense to think of this distro as Linux for (web) surfers...
