“The release of Ubuntu 10.10 has insured that many
derivative distros have also been updated. One of the less known
but very useful ones is Pinguy OS 10.10. Pinguy OS takes generic
Ubuntu 10.10 and adds quite a bit of additional software and value
to it.“If you are totally unfamiliar with Pinguy OS, you might want to
peruse the full review of the 10.04 version I did on Desktop Linux
Reviews. You can also get more background on the distro from its
creator on the Pinguy OS site.“Here’s a brief sample of that:
“Ubuntu is a great OS and undoubtedly the most popular and
easiest Linux based Distro to use but even with its default setup
and chosen programs it’s still lacking functionality and ease of
use for most new users. So what I decided to do was build a Distro
that looks good, could do everything most user would ever want to
do and that was very simple to use.”
