Well, I've been using PCLOS for just over 6 months now (KDE version).
I've had the odd crash and lock up along the way, but all these have been caused by my fiddling.
I have discovered some Icons sets work, some lock the system and sometimes I've asked the system to do something too much.
But I have now got it set how I want and it is very very stable and even for my set up, the fastest OS I have used. (As a full desktop install).

I also love that I don't have to wait for a new version to come out. I've set up auto updates and know everytime I use the computer, I'm running the most up to date system I can.

It's very user friendly once you get used to it, does everything that any other distro or other OS can do and more.

To be honest, for a while I got a little bored, there was nothing to do, no defrag, no registry repairs, no re-install to the latest version and this then dawned on me, I can now use the computer for what it was intended for.
I am really impressed with KDE and like that it hasn't changed too much, unlike Gnome. My computer still looks like a computer, not a 22" iphone.

So a big thanks to the team behind PCLOS. You have without doubt made the best Linux OS there is, in my opinion.

Like the beer advert, if Heineken made an OS, it would probably be this one.

Welcome to PCLinuxOS, John!!!

Hope you enjoy yourself here!!! Since you have nothing to do except use your computer, take a venture over to the Sandbox, if you haven't been there already....  or look in the Help section and see if there is anyone who could benefit from what you have learned...

In the UK, it would have been Carlsberg - as in:

Carlsberg don't do Operating Systems, but if they did, it would probably be the best operating system in the world.

Yeah thanks for the kind words. I've been using this OS for years, and never looked back.
