====Puppy NOP (Nearly Office Pup)====

**Puppy NOP** ("Nearly Office Pup"), developed by aerospace engineer [[http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=5585 Gray]], featuring the [[WikiPedia:Xfce Xfce]] [[WikiPedia:Desktop_environment desktop environment]]

==Racy NOP==
Nearly Office Pup is an XFCE based puplet, so called because it is a no frills pup without office apps. The idea being that you install to USB pendrive and add an SFS file of the office package.

Racy NOP 5.2.2 is based on the recently released Puppy Racy 5.2.2 with JWM and Rox removed and replaced with XFCE4.6.2 and Thunar.
