LinuxOrbit Looks At Libranet GNU/Linux 2.7

GonzoJohn writes "Linux Orbit has reviewed Libranet GNU/Linux 2.7: Other Linux distribution companies have tried to create commercial Linux products based on Debian GNU/Linux, but few have achieved long term success. Progeny Linux comes to mind as a commercial Linux distribution company whose Linux product met with good reviews, but couldn't remain in business. Libranet is a rare exception to this rule. Libranet GNU/Linux has been around quite a while and continues to build a devoted Linux user base on a commercial product based on Debian GNU/Linux. With their most recent release of Libranet GNU/Linux 2.7, Libranet continues to improve on an already solid Linux distribution."

Re:New Users, Huh?

[JLester]

I agree. We have users call the help desk pretty often when they have to force a reboot of their Windows machine. It of course runs scandisk while booting and then asks them what to do if it finds problems. They are very puzzled when their mouse doesn't seem to do anything (you have to use the arrow keys to select the options). Text-based interfaces just aren't intuitive to many modern users.
