“Softpedia is once again proud to introduce a new Linux
distribution based on the popular Ubuntu OS from Canonical, this
time with a modernized GNOME 2 desktop environment.“Like its developer said on the official website of the project,
Descent|OS is an operating system created and designed with
simplicity in mind, for people new to computers, for those who want
a decent and good-looking Linux distribution to feed their
needs.“Even if it’s based on Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), Descent|OS
uses the GNOME 2.32 desktop environment, but prettified and
modernized as much as humanly possible, providing a cool mix of old
and new technologies.”
