Why to
Elive is built on top of Debian GNU/Linux and customized to meet your needs for a complete operating system while still offering the user eye-candy, with minimal hardware requirements.
Elive comes with a full suite of applications for your work and leisure time needs. It offers everything from a full Office suite to games and Multimedia. You can enjoy watching movies or listening to music. You can even make your own DVD movies with menus, music and it works. Elive gives you the ability to make 3D animations, or compose your own movies in a real-time non-linear video editor from simple videos taken with your video camera. You can edit and manipulate audio and image files for better quality, effects, or design. And to round it all up, Elive has centralized settings and configurations in its own Control Panel
Why not to
Elive requires you to make a donation witch you have to have a paypal account thus is not totally free

Wow, I just got a notice that my elive CD just came in the mail today... how ironic. I chose elive for all the reasons listed. especially the eyecandy.

it isn't free, but there isn't funding, so thats why.

And you could just pay like $3 if you wanted to. the problem being, you still may not have a paypal account. i ordered a CD from a website so i wouldn't have to deal with the downloading hassle.
