On Sunday July 15th, the spinner went round and round, and where it stopped only Bryan knew, until he told us that the random pick this week was:
- Liquid Lemur Linux: which is is a desktop Linux distribution based on Arch Linux. It features the Xfce desktop environment, a customized Cairo-Dock, support for older PCs via the i486 kernels, and lots of custom scripts and artwork.
