LinPC: PCLinuxOS Preinstalled Systems
,----[ Quote ]
| Pay close attention to the details. At first glance our prices may seem
| higher than other Linux offerings. But our systems come standard with an AMD
| Athlon 4200+ dual-core cpu and 1GB DDR2 memory. We also use a Full tower case
| with a 430 watt power supply. We can not call our systems "Green" but it sure
| is upgradeable.

Help! Microsoft is holding me hostage!

| My week-long fight with Vista resulted in some lasting wounds. Besides the
| loss of productivity, I’m left with a non-refundable set-up charge from the
| big-box computer store for getting the first computer running. But my scars
| have taught me something valuable about the prevailing social attitude toward
| computers. Microsoft isn’t really the enemy – defeatism is. And we don’t have
| to succumb.

PCLinuxOS gaining more popularity than Ubuntu?

| This may not be as absurd a claim as you may think, especially when you take
| into consideration the minor backlash that Ubuntu has experienced. So is
| PCLinuxOS the next poster-child of usable Linux?

PCLinuxOS: Linux Distribution
,----[ Quote ]
| One notable difference from Mandriva is the program used to install
| extra software. We found this much easier to use and includes useful
| software such as graphics drivers.
|
| Unlike some other distributions, PCLinuxOS can play back
| proprietary multimedia files (including wma, mp3, mpg, rm,
| mov) without having to install extra software. DVD playback
| software is not included but can be installed with the
| standard installation tool.

Review: PcLinuxOS 2007
,----[ Quote ]
| While PcLinuxOS does still have a bit of growing to do, out of all the
| linux distributions out there, I'd easily rate this one as the best in
| every way because of all that it does, how easy it is to use, how ready
| it is to use out of the box, and most especially in the area of
| appeasing both camps, the new user and the experienced user.

PClinuxOS 2007.0 Review
,----[ Quote ]
| I am a Kubuntu user since version 6.06. However, that hasn't made
| me blindly consider (k)ubuntu to be the best linux distro; I am
| always open to newcomers. In recent days, PClinuxOS 2007.0 was
| released, and quickly hit the top of of the distrowatch charts.
| I decided to download it and give this relatively new distribution
| a text run on my Acer Aspire 5050 laptop, nicknamed the geebee.
