Linux Lite: An Easy to Use Alternative to Windows 7

Presenter: Joe Vonderwell, CCS Membership Director

Project Description of Linux Lite paraphrased from LinuxLiteOS.com

By producing an easy-to-use Linux-based Operating System, we hope that people will discover just how simple it can be to use Linux Lite.

Linux Lite is free for everyone to use and share and suitable for people who are new to Linux or for people who want a lightweight environment that is also fully functional.

Linux Lite’s foundation comes from the Ubuntu LTS series, which includes five years of support per significant release.

The following software is pre-installed on Linux Lite:

LibreOffice Suite, VLC Media Player, Firefox Web Browser, Thunderbird Email, Gimp Image Editor, Lite Themes, Lite User Manager, Lite Software, Lite Sounds, Lite Tweaks, Lite Welcome, Lite Manual, Lite Sources, Lite Updates Notify, Lite Upgrade, Whiskermenu and more.
