Today we are pleased
to announce the release of Black Lab Professional Desktop 6.0 Service
Release 3 or SR3. Black Lab Pro Desktop 6.0 SR3 is a major upgrade
to our pro desktop line of distributions. With this release we
worked on a few issues with memory consumption, security and speed.
With the Black Lab Pro Desktop we deliver it in two different
desktops, KDE and GNOME Shell . While these are commercial releases
we do offer a cut down version of it available for download from our
website. While we do not release for download all of the features of
the retail release it is far from being crippled. The KDE release
boots only consuming 480 mb of RAM and the GNOME Shell release boots
using only 545 mb of RAM

which was in October 2014.
