SAM Linux Desktop shows promise
,----[ Quote ]
| SAM Linux Desktop, an Xfce-fronted distribution based on PCLinuxOS, aims to
| be a complete and modern desktop operating system. Though it has problems
| that need to be worked out before it will match the competition, it offers an
| easy install, a 3-D desktop environment, and a flurry of programs to suit
| your needs.

Review of SAM Linux 2007

| It's a nice release and the XCFE interface serves it well but I
| couldn't say I noticed any real performance gains over PCLOS'
| KDE window manager.

| Someone once told me that SAM2007 is to PCLinuxOS what Mint was to Ubuntu
| and I agree; but probably not for the right reasons.

Tuxmachines: Sam Linux 2007--For the XFCE Lover
,----[ Quote ]
| Sam Linux 2007 was released yesterday and since it's been little over
| a year since my last test of Sam, I thought I might see what was new.
| The first Sam I tested two years ago was very unstable, while last
| year's Sam was so much improved. But this year finds Sam based on
| PCLOS 2007 and it is better than ever. It looks better, it performs
| better, it even smells better.

SAM Linux 2007 [Screenshot Gallery]

| SAM Linux is a distribution we had never heard of in the past, but
| with the 2007 edition of SAM coming out this week we couldn't help
| but to give it a try. SAM Linux is based upon PCLinuxOS and features
| a LiveCD with the Xfce 4.4 desktop. SAM Linux 2007 does include
| Beryl/XGL support, WINE, Flash 9, RealPlayer, Java, and much more.
| It is a clean distribution and looks extremely nice. If you're
| still trying to find the perfect match, SAM Linux 2007 may be
| worth trying out.

Google hosts as Ira Hyman introduces PC LinuxOS

| I must confess, I had never used Linux before, and it never crossed
| my mind to use it in the near future. Like many people I was using
| Windows for years, brought up with the system. Using it at University,
| using it at the library, using it at home. It's right there everywhere
| you go. Ira Hyman, speaker of the night and Director of Product
| Development at The Linux Loft, a Manhattan based company, advocated
| for people to use PCLinuxOS, one of the many distros Linux has,
| tried to convince people to take a closer look at this piece of
| Linux-art.
