SimplyMEPIS is an operating system designed for desktop use on both PCs and Apple computers with Intel or AMD 32 or 64 bit processors, offering an out-of-the-box experience for users.
One of the main benefits of SimplyMEPIS is its ability to replace or work side by side with Vista or XP on PCs. Additionally, it offers Apple users the opportunity to have it all: OSX, MEPIS 32 and/or 64, and even Windows running in a virtual machine sandbox.
Warren Woodford of MEPIS has gone above and beyond with the KDE 4 Beta 1 live DVDs that verify the compatibility of KDE 4 with SimplyMEPIS 7.x. Both the 32-bit and 64-bit editions are available, and they include all of the KDE 4 applications that are working at this time.
However, it's important to note that KDE 4 Beta 1 is a very early release and is meant for developers, testers, and reviewers. Because KDE 4 is functionally different than KDE 3 and still in an early beta state, a minimal KDE 3 installation remains on the disk to facilitate exploration by the user.
Overall, SimplyMEPIS is a solid choice for anyone looking for an operating system that's easy to use, versatile, and functional.
