14 DAY TRIAL // Shift Linux is a Live CD based on the popular Morphix Linux distribution. Shift Linux project is an attempt made by members of the Neowin community to create a Linux distribution.
Neowin's Shift Linux is designed to give the user an experience of being part of the Neowin community as well as having a simple, easy-to-use Live CD that can be installed on your hard drive, if you enjoy the way it works. Of course that Shift Linux is free (GPL-based) Linux distribution that can be freely distributed or modified. There are no restrictions with Shift.
Shift Linux is Debian based, therefore, it has access to all of the software and applications as other Debian distributions. The Shift Linux team decided to produce different versions of Shift for computers with lighter or more robust hardware configurations. They have produced Shift with Fluxbox for some legacy machines, and Shift with Gnome, for high-end machines, and in the near future, they want to add a version that gives the user the opportunity to select different desktop managers as time goes on.
