As promise, gOS 2.0 Beta1 codename “Rocket” was released today.

If you don’t already know, gOS is Ubuntu based and runs on the  Enlightenment 17 windows manager. With a Mac like dock, clean desktop and google’s search box integrated into the desktop, Rocket will a sure hit among new users.

Rocket is targeted for low cost distribution thus works reasonably well on low end machines. Currently all you need to run Rocket is 1GHz P3 with 256MB ram. gOS on Wikipedia

Rocket now supports virtual desktops for easy application grouping across desktops, Online storage from Box.net, Adobe Flash preloaded, gBooth webcam software and the “Exalt” WiFi manager for improved stablity. You will also realize some cosmetic changes to the desktop environment.
