There are very few laptop and PC manufacturers in the world who shipLinux distroPCs/laptops.
One such Linux hardware manufacturer isSystem 76.
Now System 76 has come out with its own Linux Distro calledPOP!_OS.
Why POP!_OS?
System 76 looks to fill this gap that exists in the Linux distro sphere.
The out-of-box experience is that of a clean canvas to start working from.
The Pop!_OS will use Ubuntu as a base, and GNOME will be the desktop environment.
Today, System 76 is rolling out the first official beta of the operating system for download.
I distro surfed when Canonical announced the end of Unity.
Ubuntu GNOME received the most attention from the team.
We figured that its essentially the future of Ubuntu and we better get to know our new product.
We adapted existing themes, icons, and fonts to the System76 brand.
Then distro parameters and default apps.
Then it wasnt Ubuntu desktop anymore, says Carl Richell, CEO, System76.
Richell adds, Today, our first beta arrives.
Download and install it.
Tell us your thoughts and about any unexpected behavior.
Were here to answer questions, fix bugs, and refine this release so it shines come October 19th.
Even with it being only our first swing, we intend to knock your socks off.
System 76s Ramakrishna makes that clear.
Hardcore developers and programmers can download the beta version of Pop!_OS versionhere.
It comes in two different versions, one for X86_64 computers, and those with Nvidia graphics chipsets.
