xandros have a good vision, just dont have good marketing and business model

But they have added a lot of mods to their KDE, worth a look

Xandros is a nice, easy to install and slick system...but they want you to pay extra for "premium services" such as downloads of other open source programs (that have been tested and rpms built for xandros)... I find it too easy to break the system when you start adding apps or tweaking the system.
I have used both xos 2 and 2.5 (busines edition)...I would never buy it...
KDE still rocks!

It looks like a disgusting merger of Luna and windows classic theme in some of the screenshots..other than that everything looks on the up and up.
