    PCLinuxOS 2007: It's finally here!

    AT LAST !!!


    PCLinuxOS 2007 Final Released
    Written by Texstar
    Sunday, 20 May 2007

    Texstar and the Ripper Gang are pleased to announce the final release of PCLinuxOS 2007. Featuring kernel 2.6.18.8, KDE 3.5.6, Open Office 2.2.0, Firefox 2.0.0.3, Thunderbird 2.0, Frostwire, Ktorrent, Amarok, Flash, Java JRE, Beryl 3D and much much more. Almost 2 gigs of software compressed on a single self bootable livecd that can be installed to your hard drive provided it is compatible with your system and you like the distribution. Over 5000+ additional packages available after hard drive install through our Synaptic Software Manager. Please note PCLinuxOS does not ship with Win32codes or DVD decryption software. Proprietary Nvidia and ATI drivers available after hard drive install.

    In addition we'd like to give out a special thanks to the PCLinuxOS community who stepped up last month to help us out and kept us going. Thank you for all your support and we'll keep working hard to bring you a good Linux distribution you can be proud of. We also want to thank Enki Consulting for providing hosting for our website and ibiblio.org for hosting our distribution.

    Currently available via torrent only as the mirrors continue to populate: LinuxTracker :: Details for torrent "PCLinuxOS 2007 Final"
    Some of the mirrors are now ready, check out this one:

    FTP archive directory /os/Linux/distr/texstar/pclinuxos/live-cd/english/preview/

    or the others in this list:

    PCLinuxOS

    The next plan is to make a DVD version with more software and internationalisation.

    I'm writing this from a PClinux 2007 LiveCD.
    Wow, it's amazing how close it looks and feels like windows (couldn't get the blue screen working though ). I think I'm going keep it to showoff to a few of my friends

    IMO, this is not a good thing.
    But, to each there own.

    Edit:
    IMO, it does not look like Windows.
    No rolling hills on the desktop.
    It has Kde, which is a very good thing.
    This seems to be one of those distros that just works.
    Now to try it on my laptop.
