It's funny that they add uTorrent under "essential" section. I think piratebay is high on their recommened websites list. :D

The Sexy Beast
good informative mag.liked that even forum questions are now answered.

Truth prevails
In the intro to PCLinuxOS, they've not mentioned what version is that? 2007 or Minime?

Other than that, is this distro bundled with extra packages of s/wares or it is a standard PCLOS 2007 iso?
