JoliOS is, in my opinion, the best and most user friendly Linux distro bar none. Not good for he usual Linux nerd, but great for an actual real user.

Yes, it's the 1.2 version. It is like ChromeOS, but based on Ubuntu 10.10. I had to kill Jolicloud Shell (Terminal - Alt+F1) to install my fglrx drivers:

Code:

killall jolicloud-launcher

You can also apt-get apps from the Terminal, like I did with Opera. There isn't that much apps in Jolicloud Web Store. This OS is better for newbies, but you get a really nice black background and a super fast OS if you kill the shell, so you can use it in radio stations, etc. I just installed it to try it out.

It's plain old Windows 7 with a patched uxtheme.dll file to allow 3rd party themes.

It's Windows 7 with UxTheme patched (Use UxStyle or the patcher).
With a Zune Theme Applied, got it here and the icons are Token Light. I got the Start Orb from Google.

Wallpaper was from Google too.

But MM2 works with Windows 7

With a patch obviously.

EPPM · **Post subject:** Re: May 2011 Desktops **Posted:** Wed May 25, 2011 7:19 pm

Yup, but I only have 256mb of RAM on here, and with NT (2000, XP) it runs but BSOD after I see the cars (they are not rendered properly).

On windows 98 I have the exact same issue but if I select 'software rendered' mode I can play it properly

Also I play there MM1 which on NT (2000, XP) I have the keyboard lag :'(
