"The main menu itself is rather thin on applications, with everything included in the system focused quite heavily on design and creation. The default list of programs includes Gimp, Blender, Scribus, Gaim, IceWeasel, Bluefish, Abiword, amSynth, Hydrogen and many others. As you can see, the list is pretty heavily focused towards design.
"Likely because of this rather stripped down and mission specific design, 64 studio is fast. Amazingly fast actually, even for a LiveCD. Load times for all applications is good, even for the more system intensive ones."
