DistroWatch.com is a wonderful site for linux users so I will be doing a distrowatch.com watch and announcing new releases.

lormalinuxbeta5-2.iso (700MB)

Xandros Desktop 2.01 OCE : “The Open Circulation Edition is a limited version of Xandros Desktop OS that can be downloaded at no charge and freely distributed to others. It is strictly for non-commercial use, and no e-mail installation support is included.” I saw this and thought this is great. I have used Xandros 2.0 and it really is a nice user friendly distro, highly recommend it, so give it a try.
BitTorrent free (512MB)
FTP download is charged at US$10.
