Review: gOS 2.0 Beta  

,----[ Quote ]
| THE idea of low-cost computers running Linux operating systems is steadily 
| gathering ground in the market place. In the UK, Dell report steady interest 
| in their range of Ubuntu-driven machines, and the diminutive Asus Eee, 
| running a customised Xandros desktop, has been a global sensation. Then 
| there's America, where Everex's range of PCs featuring the upstart Linux 
| distribution known as gOS have been selling out faster than they can make 
| them. But can cheap and cheerful also mean innovative and interesting?

gOS Linux - a very good OS - Overview & short tutorial

,----[ Quote ]
| gOS is an Ubuntu-based distribution aimed at the modern, young Internet 
| users. It offers the ease and friendliness of Ubuntu, the dead sexy looks of 
| Enlightenment 17 windows manager, OSX style, and integration of Google Apps 
| into the desktop. Sounds extremely interesting.

gOS review

,----[ Quote ]
| Simply put, gOS is just an eubuntu live cd with a google flavoured theme or 
| skin applied. But that is only the physical gOS. Much more important is what 
| it represents: With Vista being pushed hard at the moment, more and more 
| Microsoft customers are becoming fed up with Windows and looking for an 
| alternative. Linux is ready to take over the desktop market now, and a 
| distribution like gOS, properly advertised and supported may soon take it 
| there. This is one to watch.

gOS Reloaded 2.0 Beta -- Is Good OS really good enough to blast off?

,----[ Quote ]
| I am honestly pleased to give this package a 5 Pennie review. I was a bit 
| dissapointed with version 1 of gOS, as it was good, but really odd. The  
| removal of the start icon and focus on the power of enlightenment in this 
| version is really where computing needs to go. Yes, it is a complete rip off 
| of Apple OS, but hell, when something works, why not when you can take the 
| human input characteristics and apply them for the work of good instead only 
| evil?     
| 
| It is nice that this OS is not only available on a stripped down desktop I 
| would have to buy at Wal-Mart, in that now many people can run off and 
| download this gem to enjoy. I hope you enjoyed this quick review of the 
| package, and while I do hope to hear back on my request for a review, I plan 
| to add to the bonus areas with updates as I keep playing with the distro, as 
| this is now the main package on my home machine, which means it actually 
| passed the wife test. As always happy hunting for your favorite Linux, and I 
| hope this helps in your quest.

A short look at gOS

,----[ Quote ]
| So after downloading the gOS Live ISO onto my Debian Etch system I started 
| Innotek’s VirtualBox, bound the freshly downloaded ISO as a CD-ROM, made a 
| 4GB virtual hard disk image for installing it, gave that virtual computer 
| 256MB of RAM, and started...

Gosh, gOS is good

,----[ Quote ]
| I really liked gOS. It's a cute little system with lots of functionality and 
| great looks. It works well and is fast and stable on my laptop. It should 
| work on any computer that any other Linux supports. Enlightenment is an 
| impressive desktop environment, and the iBar is a low-overhead way to blend 
| cool effects with needed functionality. I think users will like it.
