“With a strong user focus, Xandros Desktop 2 offers an
intuitive, elegant, graphical environment that’s easy to use, and
installs with 4 clicks of a mouse. Based on Debian Linux 4.0
(Sarge) and a Xandros-enhanced KDE 3.1.4, Xandros Desktop 2
provides seamless compatibility with Microsoft Windows networks and
programs, including MS Office. Linux-based Xandros Desktop assures
stability and security, along with the freedom that an open
environment provides.

“‘Let’s face it, most users are fed up with viruses, worms and
the installation of patches. For the first time there is a real
alternative, a new desktop for the masses. You work with Xandros
just like the ‘other’ desktop, only better,’ commented Andy
Typaldos, CEO of Xandros Inc. ‘Whether you’re at home, school, or
at work you’ll find that Xandros Desktop OS is just what you need
to share files, write a report, surf the Internet, listen to music,
play games, or do almost anything else…'”
