has anyone used this?, is it any good? I just downloaded the iso and I'm wondering is it worth installing. It's meant to be more server/security orientated than other linux distros (it doesnt even come with X).

just cause it doesn't come with X doesn't mean its secure.

You can install most of the distro's without installing X.

Just cause it's meant to be more secure doesn't mean it is..

For something to be secure you have to go about securing it yourself. Some distro's are can be more secure out of the box, but one still needs to go in and secure them some more, ie turn off services install updates etc etc..
