NightOfHorror,
I might be able to help you with that. I've learned a lot about linux, and still continue to grow in Information with it. (soon as I can figure out remastersys, I'd be able to create my own Debian, check out Chocolate OS from

What I'm saying is we could possibly make our own linux. all I need to study is Python, and how to change the name of the O.S That appears in the Bootloader. This linux would be lightweight and would feature the "Enlightenment" desktop, as it's super light weight, comes with power-saving possiblities that allow you to underclock the processor, by limiting it to a lower speed if you want to save power, and it comes with a Vsync thing (I think?) Which means no screen tearing.
I also figured out how to (kind of) create custom terminal commands... but its not the easiest way.
