Just done the same last night. Easy install and well balanced for what it wants to achieve. A few things are differently done than what you would expect from a Linux setup. However, it is done for ease for newcomers from Windows and can be changed by tweaking. Installing and updating software from their depository is a snap. Haven't tried to install things outside of those apps yet. Also, haven't had time to "use" it. It is certainly a good starter distribution for people who don't want to be bothered or are unable to configure and install things manually (I'm using Gentoo, which is the other extreme). If I compare it to Lindows, I'd prefer Xandros. Felix On Mon, 10 May 2004 05:33, Gible Fog wrote:

Included with the aussie PC Authority's April issue is a copy of Xandros 2.0 SE which I shall (attempt to) install if and when I get time.

Any comments/opinions/gripes/warnings about this distro?
