Yes, better than most of the ones you listed, in fact. However, I re-iterate that Improv is first and foremost a development board. You can use it as a desktop replacement, but that’s not its design goal. We will be producing things that are more appropriate in this area in future, however. > However, a graphical desktop to me implies preinstalled GUI packages. Well, yes. What I linked to comes preinstalled. > Could you please answer my question of what preinstalled GUI packages > are in Mer linux by including your answer on your website and in this > mailing list? I already did answer you here: everything I listed in my last email comes preinstalled. We will be adding additional information to the website, but currently it states on: http://makeplaylive.com/#/open-hardware/improv/discover That it comes with KDE Plasma Desktop and Plasma Active. A full list of graphical software available for it will be forthcoming on the website later. -- Aaron J. Seigo
