Lycoris Linux at ExtremeTech

Posted by Hemos on from the looking-closely-at-it dept.

Eugenia writes "Most of you probably remember Redmond Linux, the user-friendly distro that tried to duplicate the familiar WindowsXP UI feel under Linux. Well, there is no more Redmond Linux. The company recently renamed the product "Lycoris Desktop/LX". ExtremeTech features today a very favorable review of the distro, includes screenshots and information on the installation, network setup, desktop environment etc."

    Please tell me why I would want something to look like an MS product?

    Got to admire they're marketing department , they've got the happy family, the single mother
    and the minority group in 3 pics. How all encompassing and worthy of them. Pity that most of their users
    will be teenage males who want to try yet-another-distribution before they get bored and go back
    to Suse/Slackware etc and this company goes bust.
