The list including modern operating systems at the top that is more suitable for everyday home use which is becoming a real challenge these days to find.

Comments and Reviews
Very interesting and incredibly lightweight OS for old desktops, ancient Atom netbooks and various dilapidated machines. It resembles Puppy Linux being actually completely different from Puppy distros.
I have tested it on my old Sony Vaio netbook [Intel Atom, 2GB RAM]. KolibriOS starts in about 10 seconds from USB flash drive, providing the full-fledged system. Don't await too much - it is retro-oriented, for example, it includes a bunch of retro games' emulators: DosBox + FCE Ultra + ScummVM and etc.
Anyway, it is worth of trying: ISO is just 64MB, it takes about 2 minutes to burn via Rufus.
