Puristisches Linux für Extrem-Googler – gOS…

Für den PC-Normalnutzer reichen ja zumeist die folgenden Dinge:

Browser

It’s not bad. Fairly speedy, but (imo) probably a bit confusing for anyone coming from Windows. The single-click-on-desktop menu takes getting used to (tho I’m sure it can be disabled). Comes with everything you’d need tho, full Open Office suite, media player (rhythmbox) etc. Exactly as they imply, it sure is Google integrated.

Yeah I saw this, it looks quite interesting. I had a look at what desktop manager is powering it and it turns out to be enlightment (E17 probably). This looks like quite a promising manager as it combines both a minimalistic approach with lots of nice features like gadgets etc. It is a bit of a chore to install as you have to do it from the source and recomplie. What complicates things is that it has been a bit of time since the last release and some of the dependancies the scripts rely on have either been upgraded / changed in name or broken.

I am throwing together something on my website about this.
