Pinguy OS 11.10 Beta Because GNOME 3.2 Not Mature

The Pinguy development team has just announced that Pinguy OS 11.10 Beta is now available for download.

The developers said that Pinguy OS 11.10 Beta could have been a final version if not for some problems with apps that are still in the Alpha / Beta stage and there are a few quirks like the property drivers messing up text and flash in Shell.
