Joli OS is Cool

Just now installed Joli OS 1.2 in my Dell Laptop and it is pretty cool. It has a very aesthetic user interface and it can be considered as a perfect OS for Netbooks, or if you have any 10 year old computers or so means this OS can be extremely useful for you.

It is an 'Ubuntu' based operating system and its makes the best use of Cloud Computing. You need to create an account in http://www.jolicloud.com/ and you can use it to store your files, install apps, share your apps and make friends. So obviously it can be used in other computers too. Just access it from the cloud..:P Ain't it great???

The coolest thing if you aren't a geek or something is that Wifi and Bluetooth installation is very easy in this. You can easily connect within a matter of minutes.

The OS itself looks like a Social networking site...:)

Pros : Its interface, its ease to use, very less boot time, makes efficient use of you hardware, "Desktop portability", Aesthetic Design that gives you the feel of a social networking site..

Cons : Most of the apps here are web apps (although you have native apps), so internet connection becomes a constraint. But again this won't be a much of concern...

Given below are some screenshots,






You can download the OS from the following link,
