I waxed poetic about PCLinuxOS 2007 a few months ago when I compared it to Mint (and even earlier about version 0.93a). After 8 months, Texstar and the "Ripper Gang" are in the process of releasing another version (about time...). The new version, PCLinuxOS 2008, will ship with KDE 4, but at the time of writing, the final isn't out yet. They recently released a so-called "MiniMe" version of the final product with KDE 3.5, and it's better than ever- to the point that I would actually use it.

I can't get to the actual page( seems to be stuck ), but from the little bit on LXer, I can tell you it's misleading. Nowhere, and I repeat.nowhere, was written that the new version would be called PCLinuxOS2008, nor that it will come with KDE4. And it is not a >. It is Minime, and it is VERY mini. And it is NOT KDE3.5 It's KDE3.5. Hope the link gets fixed. I want to see the other inaccuracies.

So seems he's talking about life after MineMe.
