Re: [ubuntu-in] gOS
to me it seems just a stripped down version of ubuntu targetted to first time users.thats the market its getting popular in, in the US. but its focus on google is what i liked. because i'm looking forward to the time when the OS you use is unimportant and you live off the web. its a move in the right direction but needs to work on it a lot.

I downloaded and installed it sometime back. its has google apps available for easy access. for stuff like gmail, it just opens up the webpage plus it has awn manager preinstalled otherwise its almost the same as ubuntu, so i went back to the original Ubuntu within a few hours of installing it. I don't understand the point of calling it a separate operating system when its just the same. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Do you think this was a good move? I think there are two versions one uses Gnome other enlightenment (not very sure). look and feel enlightenment is good but while using it will be quiet different wrt Gnome, but it is quiet fast. > > > On 9/27/08, shashank ( shantaram) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > hey people, > > > > check out this linux distro. > > > > > http://practical-tech.com/operating-system/the-little-desktop-linux-that-came-out-of-the-blue/ > > http://www.thinkgos.com/gos-screens.php > > > > its based on ubuntu > > > > sorry for the earlier mail wrong subject > > -- > > Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you > didn't > > do than by the ones you did do. > > So throw off the bowlines.

Re: [ubuntu-in] gOS
gOS is one of those operating systems that is built for an integratinon with the internet which can be seen in the abundance of google applications available. Though its new and all, has anybody on the list actually used it? Or is it like a shiny sports car that you wont want to take for a spin? >From what I know so far, gOS uses GNOME just like Ubuntu but earlier versions used E17. Do you think this was a good move?
