It's rare to see some truly interesting ideas in Linux distributions, as most seem content to just remaster Ubuntu with a different theme. Therefore, we at OSNews are always interested in fresh and interesting distributions that try to add something of value to the landscape. One such distribution is xPUD, a fast-booting, kiosk-like distribution that uses the Mozilla Gecko Runtime to display a simple user interface that allows you to launch normal desktop Linux applications.

This is just one more example of the power of open source software. It reminds me of when I set up Arch Linux to boot straight into Firefox with out a window manager just because I could. So thank you for sharing your project and namaste.
