Good for your mum : )

Mac-like Linux serves the Windows crowd

The above is an article from The Register that I just read today that surprised me because it sounded like the thoughts that are inside my head 24/7 when I'm working with our team on growing the gOS both as a company and community.

Over the past 9 months since we debuted at Wal-Mart, we've been fortunate and feel grateful to have received a lot of coverage about what we are doing.

P.S. This month I also want to appreciate Kevin and Joby who are new members of our team and family. They've helped us develop our brand new, very helpful user community (Visit its Google Group) and beautiful website which was ranked 5th in the Top 10 Linux distribution websites in a highly Dugg article :-)

Best,
Dave

gOS 3 Gadgets BETA is released!

Learn more about gOS 3 Gadgets BETA.

Join the Google Group to discuss gOS 3 Gadgets BETA.

Along with that we've made some updates to our website!

It's just an early start, but thanks to our community we'll be improving the user experience in the next 1-2 months towards a final release.

Would like to especially thank James Su and Dan Kegel for their contribution to the open source community and also for their advice and help on including their projects in gOS. James is the developer of Google Gadgets for Linux, Google Desktop for Linux, and previously wrote SCIM which broke many language barriers for the Linux desktop. Dan has been a WINE developer for many years, and has helped us run killer apps like Google Picasa for Linux, Adobe Photoshop CS2, and others on gOS and any other Linux. Also many thanks to their teams and communities as well. Check out Google Gadgets for Linux and WINE 1.0.

We hope a lot of developers and end users interested in developing a "Linux for the rest of us" will join us for testing and feedback.

Thanks everyone for your support!

Dave
