    System that preserves the best of Mandrake

    Date: Nov 19 2023

    Summary: A good system, but it could be modernized by adding support for systemd and increasing the packages in its repositories.

    Positive: I really like using his apt-rpm. another cool tool is mylivegtk which allows me to make customized versions.

    Negative: Destandardized KDE menu, no support for systemd and gnome.
