One primary advantage Elive has over Bodhi is the more robust set of applications. While I can appreciate Bodhi's approach, in real life it can be a time-consuming and frustrating experience downloading the high-end apps I enjoy. My system is at best a mid-grade machine, but I want its resources devoted to the apps rather than the window manager.

Although I am using another OS at the moment, as soon as the installer appears in Elive I will be using it.
