There is a review of the Desktop OS Version 3 Business Edition from
Xandros. This operating system is meant to allow users to easily move
from Windows XP to Linux without the problems that can arise. Xandros
not only can use Window's file system but it is able to run a great
number of Windows programs using its CrossOver Office tool from
CodeWeavers. This is one of the most accessible distros to come along in
awhile and it marks a big step forward in the progress on Linux on the
desktop.

 Xandros' Windows functionality is OK for a demonstration. But its speed
 sucks for production environment.

 BTW, Xandros isn't a pretty looking dektop. And, it is not FREE as in
 FREE BEER
