Showdown: The Penguins Prepare for a Shootout (OfB.biz)
Open for Business begins
a multi-part series of distribution reviews with a look at Xandros
Desktop 1.0. "If initial presentation was the measure of quality,
Xandros would have all of the other distributions beat right from the
start; this company definitely understands the importance of first
impressions. When the installer first boots up, rather than being greeted
by a text-based progress bar or scrolling boot messages, this distribution
starts up in style with a flashing Xandros logo that fades away once things
are ready to go. It might not do much for you once your ready to use the
system, but it did make for something different than the normal monotony of
the boot system (which also often scares new GNU/Linux users)."
