Fantastic success on the first release of Ultimate Edition 5.0 Lite based on Mate.  It has been downloaded 20,000 times in about a week.  Additionally, what shocked me to see the 8 in one BluRay pounded over 2,000 times in a week that is a bunch of data flow when considered it is 23 Gigabytes with 18,000 or so X 3 Gigabytes as well.

    I have been busy.  I have dropped a new Ultimate Edition 5.0 LTS Lite.  Hand built for the most part based on XFCE, smaller, tighter and faster:

    It can be downloaded from the Ultimate Edition 5.0 Page. We are far from done, I have also been asked for a LXDE and a Cinnamon version.  While I was at it I dropped a Ultimate Edition Lite 4.2.4 also a Long Term Supported release based on the Trusty tree, this will probably be the last release you see from me on the Trusty tree.  I have been told it is flawless.

    It does not stop there, I have ordered a Raspberry PI for development.  it will be here Tuesday.  Shwn Vntr (one our beta testers) and I will be constructing an PI O/S for it, he is well ahead of me now.

Big things are in works enjoy,
