Enlightenment DR17 On the Linux Desktop

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the zen-and-the-art-of-x dept.

StephenJoiner writes "There's a new review on Mad Penguin of the latest VectorLinux release, which includes the in-development Enlightenment DR17 desktop. As far as I know, this is the first time DR17 has appeared on a production desktop... even as a "technology preview". All I have to say is Enlightenment on VectorLinux is absolutely off the scale." Enlightenment was in Slashdot news earlier for both the involvement with Elive and their use of Epeg bits to deal with thumbnailing.

    ...the greatest desktop known to man and machine. It is what convinced me to dump Windows altogether. It is THE killer app. That is all.
