Overclockix 3.7 Released

Posted by michael on from the burn-baby-burn dept.

prostoalex writes "Overclockix 3.7 is released, available via bittorrent. It's a live Linux CD with a bunch of utilities for 'torturing' the PC hardware, hence the name. The authors seem to take a reasonable approach on graphical desktop, cutting out what they consider unnecessary eye candy, but leaving in the tools essential for effective GUI. 'Some new package highlights such as knoppix firewall, vlc, superkaramba, KDE 3.3.1, newer 2.6.7 kernel, NX client, and many more', the site says."

    They're cutting out unnecessary eye-candy and throwing in superkaramba.

    For the love of God, tell me what the unnecessary ones were.
