Best operating system that is working fine

It's very easy for beginners like me who don't know Linux at all, it works perfectly without any problem as well I can do my job in this OS easily since its free so many applications are avaliable too! The best thing about porteus kiosks application i think there should be one more option where you have different themes just because we really need variety when designing our apps but if u choose your own theme then good luck!! If anybody want an app designer/developer here try out their products

Pros
  • Its open source software which is helpful to everyone with minimum requirements no matter what kind o f device or operating system someone use he still get his task completed efficiently that means user friendly interface.It provides lot features within short period of development life cycle compared other available tools such us Photoshop , flash.etc..which needs alot long process compare these days people mostly prefer web design over desktop
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Porteus KIOSKO is an amazing operating system that's perfect to use daily

This OS looks good, it runs well in my laptop without issues! The installation procedure was very easy! I also love its simplicity when configuring things like wifi networks for internet access; everything can be done through GUI rather than text editor / command line interface (cli). Sometimes there are slowdowns especially if you have multiple applications open at once but this isn't something i dislike as much other distros do so more often then not anyways.. Its definitely worth looking…

Pros
  • Very lightweight
  • Installation is simple enough to make one feel smart with no knowledge required beyond reading up some instructions from net or elsewhere online(just follow correct steps)
  • Easy application start buttons making starting common apps quick&easy too.
  • Application search feature makes switching between 2 different running programs quite fast
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok

The ideal OS for students to get used to using a Linux OS.

I like how easy it was for my class, teachers could easily configure their classroom computers without knowing anything about Linux at all! The program can be very cumbersome but once you get used to using your mouse more than one way things become easier (also there are many tutorials out in google!). A lot less technical knowledge required compared to other OS's such as windows/macOS etc., this makes porteus ideal if someone doesn't have much coding experience otherwise they would struggle…

Pros
  • It is also incredibly customisable allowing usernumerous functions eithout programming / scripting ability needed ! Great system that does everything we require!! :) Excellent software package!!!
Cons
  • At times not always intuitive or user friendly takes time getting into style when installing multiple applications simultaneously
