Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Easiest Linux Distro

 

Just some additional info, I installed Pear 8 for a friend today and the distro quickly updated and seems to be stable and up to date.

I realize they may not be doing new releases in the future, but as of now the OS is stable, secure and very usable.

Now in a year, this may be a different story!

To reply to myself once more...

I was judging by distrowatch, when I said there had been no updates in
close to a year, just going by their version release dates. I see that on
sourcefoge, it is shown as having some updates as recently as February,
though they do announce that it is no longer under development.
