Tried BackBox from a random distro search. This is the first distro that I did not had to study up on. So easy to use and fast and thats from the live USB. BackBox starts with wifi which is the first thing I tick with any distro. Some other distros should take a lesson. Its 2019. It has the basic features for the home user and you can get what else you want from the repos. I can see how the review is at 9.7 even though its a small sample field. I give it a ten at this stage. I really think a beginner could settle in to it easily. Further testing from me and a new review later.

Very complete. Fast boot times. I initially used it as a PenTest base from Live usb stick.
It has all the standard PenTest and forensic tools but in a nice package.
I found it very configurable and comfortable to use so I did a full disk install to 128Gb SSD.
Very stable and configurable.
I now use the BackBox distro with some extra packages to run my Emby media server.
I know its not designed for that but its fast and smooth and delivers good media transcoding rates to my Roku box. Serendipity!
Some extras that I like and installed as defaults:
Emby media server.
* GNOME Disks - partition management utility. Allows me to change HD mount points to /mnt not /media. Necessary to have Emby see the mount point.
* GNOME Files, formerly known as Nautilus - File display and management - I have become addicted to the extra pane display feature and can't live without it.
Cheers Team BackBox!

Nothing but perfection at its best :) Backbox has come a long way. I wish that other Linux users would get hip to this distro and the tools that comes with it. Respect....Backbox :)

Beautiful working out of the box system. Plenty of system tools and lots of pen testing stuff included. Most importantly for me it offered a smooth gui interface for dual boot during install.

Nice fresh new look for BackBox been using for years and it only gets better. Love the fact is has WPScan as a default add-on. Watch out for this one.

I love this one.
This distro and parted magic are about all you need to save your *whatever* after a mistake, disaster, intrusion, etc. One could spend a massive amount of time exploring and experimenting with the apps that are included. All of it is well worth the download.
Put it on a usb drive, hook it on your key ring and put it in your pocket. I do.

Easy to use. Perfect for pen-testing. Only negative is that it needs some serious (!!!) UI tweaks and upgrades.
