Pclinuxos is an independent project, actually I love independent projects since they do things in a different manner and style . Its one of the major Linux distribution which still has roots with Mandrake Linux 9.2, whose successors now include Mandriva linux and OS which I had Reviewed earlier on my blog like Mageia and Rosa linux / Alt linux. Its an interesting mix of Mandrake Linux stuff and Debian like command line ,other linux goodies remaining in PCLinuxOS .

Actually I was thinking of reviewing their full monty kde 64 bit 2013.07 edition , what I love about this edition as lots of useful software comes pre-installed . The iso were downloaded past night the recent iso 2013.07 kde full monty edition and kde 64 bit edition and then made a live usb of it and even burned dvd full monty edition but it refuses to boot in live mode on my laptop {Dell} it was just not able to boot what's the problem that I didn't understood . so looked in my iso wallet found a old copy of 64 bit kde by texstar 2013.04 edition . so burned out a dvd of it and fired on dell laptop and started the installation process wizard. From installer noted that the installation steps haven't changed from previous versions, so I'll skip that part.Thus pclinuxos installed on my system fine as ,it all takes about 10 minutes to install for me ,
After reboot steps like creating a regular user account with a password. and then we are brought to a colourful graphical login screen greeted with a message as shown below as since its rolling release plz update uor repos .
