 :: Reviews : TurboLinux 10F — The Next Great Desktop?
I was introduced to TurboLinux back in early 2001 when they released TurboLinux Server 6.5, and let me tell you I was instantly sold.
I later moved on to more community-supported distributions as TurboLinux changed hands and their subsequent releases to the public were limited trials.
The reason I'm placing so much emphasis on the two desktop environments is because this is a desktop distro, and with the amount of new features available with both releases it would put TurboLinux 10F in the realm of Fedora Core 2, Mandrake 10, and SUSE 9.1 in terms of usability.
