Richard Hillesley charts the trials and tribulations of PCLinuxOS (ITPro)
Richard Hillesley takes a
look at PCLinuxOS. "The inspiration behind PcLinuxOS, also known
as PCLOS, is Bill Reynolds, who is known to fans of PCLinuxOS as
Texstar. PCLinuxOS began as an offshoot of Mandrake/Mandriva, to which
Texstar had been a long time contributor of third-party packages. The
objective was to build a fast, reliable distribution of Linux, that was
both a Live distribution on the model of Knoppix and a fully installable
and flexible Linux desktop, driven by Reynolds' passion to make the perfect
software package."
