i have tested the snapshot of mxlinux mate 17.1 on a sd card on real hardware and i must say its handsome haha .
however i have seen something in that snapshot that you must follow or you wil f.u.c.k it up , howver.. its a amazing iso .
i call it like in windows terms a big warez iso loooooooooollll...
if you try this iso i give you a good tip test it on real hardware why ( the mate 17.1 extreme is 3.5 gb)
yes however there is coming a lite version two , its just a test how good that snapshot can handle big things but it works perfect , it can handle big iso's for example a blackwindows xp from the past or whatever a 6gb iso wil not be one problem tested to the full.
i open a sourceforge account to put the isos all there , it wil be easy for everyone to download it.
the iso mate 17.1 if you run it for the first time give it time to run (it wil run)
there is only one fault in the iso , Variety was not in the upstart but have taking over the official wallpaper , howver not a big thing , if the iso is loaded in the live you wil see something that trill your mind

if the iso is one sourceforge i let you know it wil blow up your mind for sure , mxlinux wil rise in that rangking , wil make it rise to nr1
