I use a highly unknown operating system. Are there others like me?

Slax is so small it can run on a 256 MB flash drive.

What about apps?

I use Linux myself (Arch), but the highly unknown part of my computing is my window manager: Awesome. It's a small, configurable tiling WM.

That's why whem people talk about "linux," unless they are talking about the terminal, I will be thinking something very different.

I recommend that you install linux. Something small and light, like $@#$@#$@#$@# Small Linux, Tiny Core, or Puppy. That will problably do everything that Hiku does, and more.

Just my $0.02

Build from source, unless there is a package manager available (I think there is a package manager of some sort in puppy.).

Does Tiny Core come with a development system? does Small Linux?

Yes there is. And one of those packages is a complete development system.
