The Simply Linux team announced the release of Simply Linux Release 2 (5.0.1). The distribution is still quite young, the first release was in October. But during this short time he managed to collect many users, largely due to his concept - ease of use, maximum Russification, nice interface, only necessary programs, focus on the novice user.
During this time, Simply Linux has become a project. He has a website and other fashionable attributes, such as LJ, VKontakte group and Twitter.
One of the main innovations of the distribution is the version for the flash drive, thanks to which Simply Linux can be easily installed on netbooks, and just to everyone who does not want to use the already outdated CD format.
