I have spent the past week or two working with Peppermint operating system v. 6. This is an operating system that is a hybrid with Google’s Chrome operating system integrated with an Ubuntu platform. Peppermint OS provides a fast easy to use GUI and is optimized for using Google based cloud tools.
The idea is to keep the clutter to a minimum on the home computer and utilize the cloud to advantage with the numerous Google tools and applications that are available. Of course, Peppermint OS is free and open source. The degree of customization possible is only limited by the users imagination and programming abilities.
I will write more on this later as I utilize more of the programs features. Check out the Peppermint OS web site at:
