Linpus Intro

Just a short peek at what Linpus, on the Acer Aspire, will look and act like. This is the Freeware version of Linpus available at http://www.linpus.com/, not actually the Aspire version supplied from Acer.

I do recommend it, seems nice, and is free online, simple interface, and well designed. Bare in mind this is not actually the custom version that comes with the Aspire. But the core functions are there.

Yeah I was thinking of buying the acer aspire one for when I go on holiday so I can do my cisco course while I'm away. I was interested in linpus and it looks pretty good. Good video.

Bare in mind this is the free version of Linpus, the one with the Aspire is a custom build of Linpus. I would suggest checking it out prior to buying, at a local computer retailer.

Ok folks, bought it and its fine. Comes with some games (trial versions) open office sorta thing. Gotta go 2 the files 2 get 2 the terminal and its set up in a pretty wierd way that other versions of Linux OS. If you've used ubuntu, its nothing like that lol. Managed to do all my college work on holiday with it. In the end its just a cheap OS that you can save money on. Not bad for what its meant for but when I get back home, its going to be replaced by ubuntu...also free but its better tbh.

I hate Linpus, I'm totally unfamiliar with Linux... but I REALLY wanna try Ubuntu. I tried installing Ubuntu on my Acer aspire One but it wouldnt work ;[

Well, it looks that this OS is pretty nice, but, honestly, do you recomend it? I'm thinking about buying a computer (Acer Aspire One) that brings this OS, but I'm not sure what can I expect about this. I'll be so glad if you could give me your best opinion. Thanks!
