"For this review I decided to use the main KDE version.
"There is also a "MiniMe" version that contains the desktop
only, without all of the extra applications. If you are the type
that wants total control over what applications are put onto your
system, the MiniMe version is definitely for you. I, being somewhat
lazy and not much of a control freak, simply opted for the regular
version.
"What's New In This Release
Here's a sample of what's new in this release:
"Kernel 2.6.32.11-bfs kernel for maximum desktop
performance.
Full KDE 4.4.2 Desktop.
Nvidia and ATI fglrx driver support.
Multimedia playback support for many popular formats.
Wireless support for many network devices.
Printer support for many local and networked printer devices.
Addlocale allows you to convert PCLinuxOS into over 60
languages.
GetOpenOffice can install Open Office supporting over 100
languages.
MyLiveCD allows you to take a snapshot of your installation and
burn it to a LiveCD/DVD.
Parental Controls to keep your kids away from those naughty
websites."
