Gosh, gOS is good

| 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.

Wal-Mart's Ultra-Efficient Linux PC Sells Out

,----[ Quote ]
| Well...after all the naysaying, it took about a week for Wal-Mart's $200 
| green Linux PC to sell out of their online warehouses. Of course, it probably 
| isn't selling quite that fast in stores.

| Based on Ubuntu 7.10 Linux system with an Enlightenment E17 interface, the

| accessed through Firefox: Mail, Calendar, News, Maps and Documents & 
| Spreadsheets. It also comes with OpenOffice.org 2.2 and some other freeware 
| Linux favorates.
