[Sussex] Xandros news

[Angelo Servini]

Xandros have now announced differentiation of their distro into: Xandros
Delux ($99) and a cut down version called Xandros Standard ($39).  Only the
Delux version ships with the Crossover Office that allows you to run Windows
apps.  For more info: http://www.xandros.com/news.html

One nice feature of the Delux version (which is the version I got), comes
with the facility to reallocate space from a NTFS partition. However,
"Unlike Xandros Desktop Deluxe, Xandros Standard Edition cannot reallocate
space from a Windows NTFS during the install, though it still can reallocate
space from a FAT, VFAT, or FAT32 partition. By removing such Deluxe features
such as CodeWeavers CrossOver Office and Plugin, the printed user guide, and
the Technology Preview CD, Xandros Desktop can be made available at a
terrific price. Xandros Desktop Standard provides one incident of e-mail
installation support, as opposed to 30-day support with Xandros Desktop
Deluxe.
"

There are also forums avaiable from the Xandros website.
