PC/OS (RED)Station Released


One of the things we do at PC/OpenSystems LLC is we look at what we can do for humanity, our neighbors and families. When the disaster in Haiti struck, if you purchased a copy of PC/OS we donated funds to the Haiti Relief fund. If you are a member of the US Armed Forces you got whatever version of PC/OS that you would have liked shipped to you free of charge. So how do we extend that ? How do we keep helping our neighbors throughout the world? Well, today PC/OpenSystems has joined Project (RED), for the fight against AID's in Africa. When you purchase the branded Project (RED) release of PC/OS for $45.00 USD, we donate $10.00 USD to Project (RED). This release will not be downloadable, only available for retail. For those who have questions about our integrity we wont sell something and not send the funds, we will keep track of how many of these releases are sold and post it on the site. This release is PC/OS OpenWorkstation that we the team have dubbed, PC/OS (RED)Station. Even though in the posted screenshot its based on PC/OS 11 Alpha we will backport the theme to PC/OS 10.1.1

PC/OS Roots

PC/OS roots are derived from the Ubuntu distribution. Ubuntu is created and maintained by Canonical Inc. and has a vast community support system. By basing PC/OS on this outstanding base we cover two grounds, a lot of the problems and fixes are in line with Ubuntu. Many fixes for Ubuntu and Xubuntu work on PC/OS. All software compiled for Ubuntu runs on PC/OS and should anything happen to PC/OS users can still get their fixes from Canonical and maintain their distribution and makes the migration smoother. The desktop is based off of XFCE and is laid out similar to the BeOS. PC/OS does not aim to be a ground up reimplementation of the BeOS but to be as simple to use as the BeOS was. The XFCE desktop is light,modern and powerful. It can be used to power the newest workstations as well as older hardware allowing you to get the maximum potential out of your investment.

What can I do with PC/OS

It is your computer, do with it what you want. if you want to watch that Windows Media file, go right ahead. Your music files not in .ogg, thats fine by us. Do you want to watch that flash video on YouTube? go ahead.

Of course, we do encourage the open route. Open Source doesn't survive without contribution but you as users should have the freedom to do whatever it is you want to do.

We also encourage consistency. XFCE is our desktop, not GNOME, not KDE, not TWM, not PWM. of course in accordance with our first part of the mission statement the others are available for download and installation.
