Wow downloaded it and it looks great from the livecd.

I stopped using pclinuxos when I got the new hard drive and have been waiting for this update so that I wouldn't have to do all those updates again.

They also have a junior version and a minime version, they are just smaller versions of the Big Daddy for those wanting something lite.

Downloads are here: http://www.pclinuxos.com/page.php?7

How exactly do I upgrade my older version of PCLinux? Do I just apply updates via Synaptic or is there something more involved like downloading images and doing an in-depth installation?

It still works great for me BTW. Highly recommended for those looking to try Linux. Even though there are more hands-on distros of Linux, I find PCLinux works fine for me :D

Yeah if you kept updated you have the .93 without the nice frontend, but there is a post on the pclinuxos that I think I read about being able to do the new frontend with having to use the .93iso.

You will also lose some programs as they have been dropped from the .93iso.
