Продолжает свой развитие PIXEL for PC and Mac. По сути это дебиан с кастомизированным лхде и хромом с проприетарью, но без Minecraft and Wolfram Mathematica (их можно поставлять только на распери-пи сборку). Но это ладно, к зоопарку не привыкать. Занятно вот это:

A school can now run PIXEL on its existing installed base of PCs, just as a student can run PIXEL on her Raspberry Pi at home. She can move back and forth between her computing class or after-school club and home, using exactly the same productivity software and programming tools, in exactly the same desktop environment. There is no learning curve, and no need to tweak her schoolwork to run on two subtly different operating systems.
And bringing PIXEL to the PC and Mac keeps us honest. We don’t just want to create the best desktop environment for the Raspberry Pi: we want to create the best desktop environment, period. We know we’re not there yet, but by running PIXEL alongside Windows, Mac OS, and the established desktop GNU/Linux distros, we can more easily see where our weak points are, and work to fix them.
Чем так привлекателен десктопный линукс, что даже из нишевой области в него лезут? Или рынок школьного линукса такой вкусный?
