Linux-100-Extras-PCLinuxfullMonty-03

PCLinuxfullMonty has everything you want and it has I believe 64 bit capability too.
Go for it when the going is good.
4 GiB of it and it is a very affable Gorilla.

Linux-100-Extras-Fedora-14-04

Another new version (14 a brand new conceptually) has come out after I felt out of with Fedora 3 (Redhat 8 and 9 were my favorites) and I have been looking at it from version 9 (also because of ADIOS which got stuck at Fedora 8).
It has shed some of its old routine stuff but has failed catch the trends in other emerging Linux distribution.
I have installed Fusion which has Dropbox and it has all the virtues of Fusion

It is under 700 MiB and fits into 4 different (Live and installable) Standard CD.

It is pleasing and packed with minimum of utilities.

Have taken the trouble to release 32 bits, 64 KDE and Gnome in 4 CDs.

KDE has K-Office and Gnome has none.

Very soon Gnome has to embrace LibreOffice of document foundation which is doing a good hob.

I wish success with this new version even though I hesitate to introduce it to a newbie.

A savvy could pick and choose its packages from the repository but I have not visited it myself.

If you had been a Redhat fan (like me in the past) go for it.

I won't leave PCLinux (it is my Gold Standard) now that the PCLinuxfullMonty is out (Gorilla version) which has everything (cater for 64 bits too) I need and more packages to learn.

Who goes first?-Key Point-02

Have you ever thought of the identity crisis the key would have of its own if s/he has a brain?

Who am I the duplicate or the triplicate or the original?

Who goes first, me the original, you the duplicate or you the romeo?

Who will have the break me, you or the other?

Have you ever thought of what will happen if 100 replicas are produced from a single stem cell and the names of the beings such produced are given?

Stem Cell-01 being, 02 being to 100 being.

What will happen if they decide to come to a supermarket for shopping with only one credit card given to the original stem cell?

What will happen if they come for a super bowl?

It is mind boggling isn't it?

Thank god the key does not have a brain of its own!
