When Enlightenment met Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| Despite being a young distro with just two releases under its belt, Geubuntu
| delivers a visually stunning desktop without compromising functionality. As a
| double benefit, the components it uses to blend functionality with bling have
| modest hardware requirements. This makes the distro perfectly suitable for
| older computers.
|
| Built atop Ubuntu, the distro has a solid, well-tested base. Its unique mix
| of components from desktop environments Xfce and GNOME on top of the
| under-development Enlightenment environment introduces several bugs, but the
| developers are working to iron these out, and have already tackled several
| between the first two releases. I'd recommend this distro to desktop users
| with aging hardware, and to users who haven't tried Enlightenment before.

| For Enlightenment and Ubuntu fans this distro is custom made for you. It
| takes the best of Ubuntu and combines it with a great desktop environment. If
| Ubuntu or Kubuntu is a bit too heavy for your equipment, then Geubuntu just
| might be what you need. It might also be an idea for those who find Elive a
| bit overwhelming, or those who like to be a bit different from the rest of
| the crowd.

E17 -- Desktop Enlightenment
,----[ Quote ]
| You need to install E17 in order to fully appreciate the magnificent
| work of the programmers. The direction of changes is very good -- e17
| delivers a nice-looking desktop with many special effects, being easy
| and lightweight at the same time. When compared to its predecessor
| -- e16 -- it shows that the desktop personalization and new effects
| do not have to trigger additional hardware purchases. I only wish Ic
| ould say the same about GNOME and KDE. Also, I have to say that I
| wish the Microsoft products were as stable and functional as e17
| in alpha phase.

A short look at gOS

| So after downloading the gOS Live ISO onto my Debian Etch system I started

Gosh, gOS is good
,----[ Quote ]
| 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.
