OT: for anyone curious about Linux byond Ubuntu...

[Peter Alcibiades]

For anyone curious about Linux, and  who has not yet gone beyond Ubuntu, 
elive, one of my favourite projects, has just reached their 1.0 release.    
This is about as amazing a visual and desktop experience as  you can get, and 
what you might have expected from a developer with the name of

        Samuel 'Thanatermesis' F. Baggen

and originating in the country which gave us Magritte....

Here is their home page

http://www.elivecd.org/

and it has links to screenshots.  You will need to firmly repress all thoughts 
about HIGs to appreciate it.

Enjoy!
