Slashdot showed the TechnologyReview.com Presto article talking about this new Linux operating system.
After looking at Presto’s website it’s tough to tell this is a Linux distribution. A free version will be available after Marth 16th, with a for-pay OEM version is available now.
The retail version of Presto will be available as a free Beta download on March 16, 2009.

As someone who has been frustrated with Window’s long boot times, and who has recently become frustrated with Linux’s even longer boot times, Presto sounds like an interesting distribution.

The “inexpensively” makes me nervous.
One of the main reasons I have been attempting to make the switch from Windows to Linux is the big FREE price.
If you sign up for a Beta and are brave enough to install this O.S. please let us know what you think.
