I downloaded Gos from there website http://www.thinkgos.com/ . I installed
it onto a P3 700mhz with 512mb ram. I was pretty impressed with it. Using
the enlightenment window manager (Very modified) was a good idea. It's
pretty snappy. Also they made it ultra Mom friendly. They explain what each
thing is. On there "Start" menu next to every app in describes what each one
is used for. Also they make it clear where the "Control Panel" is. They are
by no means making a Windows clone like
http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/10/04/vixta-a-fedora-linux-based-windows-vista-clone/.
I'm just saying for my use I have a neat little Linux machine for a web
browsing station in my apartment.
