zlim Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Raspberry Pi has released a version of linux that can be run on Windows PCs. It is based on Debian and called Pixel OS. http://thehackernews.com/2016/12/raspberry-pi-pixel-os.html So I know there are some bleeding edge people out there willing to test it live and offer some comments.

V.T. Eric Layton Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Old and staid is relative. It happens to folks at different stages of their lives regardless of the number of years they have attained. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I am out of state visiting family till Tuesday but when I get home, I will try it on a Win 10 vm (KVM) image just to check it out. If it works ok, I may install it on my work computer so I have linux terminal available on it. I also always have one of my laptops with me so I do have Linux but the convenience of a terminal on my work machine would be great.!!

sunrat Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Raspberry Pi has released a version of linux that can be run on Windows PCs. It is based on Debian and called Pixel OS. Serious naming fail there. Sounds like It should be installable on my new Google phone. Bet it doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlim Posted December 25, 2016 Author Share Posted December 25, 2016 Yes, I wondered who will file a lawsuit against whom. Perhaps they will let both 'pixel' names applied to different things co-exist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
