Xandros Desktop OS is a GNU/Linux distribution that attempts to work right out of the box, as well as offer completely unrivalled compatibility with Microsoft Windows. Xandros has bundled a lot of software in with the Open Circulation Edition that we are reviewing. From a four step install to easy CD burning to one-click application installs, Xandros has proven that it, in many ways, is a desktop vastly superior to every other Linux distribution this reviewer has ever used. Next time my grandparents get a new computer, Windows will not be on it.
Xandros Open Circulation Edition is free to download via Bit-Torrent. If you don't have Bit-Torrent and wish to use the web, for a $10 charge to cover bandwidth you can download it from their HTTP servers. It is a mere one CD, so it won't tax your supply of blanks and cause endless clutter on your shelves as some distros do (before the flames come in, I love Debian, and I use Debian unstable whenever I'm not off reviewing some distribution or another). Having only one CD also means that Xandros doesn't make much of a dent in your hard drive - a complete install is under 1.5GB. Read more here:
