Commodore USA has just released a distro, based on Mint, which caters for fans of their old machines. Have to admit that at first sight I'm tempted, especially for Christmas;

"Commodore OS Vision is a community driven Linux distribution for Commodore enthusiasts that is designed to unleash your creative potential and help you enjoy your computing experience to the fullest. Commodore computers were well known for their unique operating environments, so we seek to do the same, by providing a distinctive, attractive, advanced and fun operating system experience. Its look is inspired by the Commodore 64 and original Commodore Amiga Workbench user environments but with a modern spin, which includes many slick graphical effects which showcase the capabilities of our new Commodore machines."

I don't think it runs on a normal PC, and the more capable machines it does run on look expensive (the top one is nearly $1500). Still, it's good to see an old face making a comeback.



this is really kinda lame , It's linux with compiz and other doo-dads ... show me something new is my say ...
