A few weeks ago I wrote about my experiences installing several different distributions on my ThinkPad T61. One of the distributions I tested was PCLinuxOS 2007. And, as I wrote, there were a couple of small issues that I had to fiddle with in order to get everything working. With the recent release of the 2008 version of PCLinuxOS (the Mini Me version which comes with a minimal number of applications pre-installed), I thought it would be good to write about how this new version works on my laptop. However, that could be summarized in just one phrase: It just works! That is right, everything worked out-of-the-box, wireless networking, 3D acceleration and Compiz-Fusion, sound, etc.

So, instead of boring you with yet another review of the very easy to use installer, lets move on to what it is like to use PCLinuxOS. But, before I do that, let me tell you a little bit about what PCLinuxOS is about and why you should be interested in it.
