Pardus released a new version a couple of weeks ago. I still remember when Pardus used to be one of my daily distros... But after they moved to Debian, I faced lots of issues and stopped using it. By those days, I moved to Pisi Linux, but haven't heard much of that distro lately.
I don't know if I should give Pardus a try. In the old days, it used to be so stable that my mother had it as its main OS on her PC, but now she is using another distro.
The problem with Pardus is that if you install it, you are pretty much on your own (unless you know Turkish.)
I guess I'll download it and try it, just for the sake of fun and experimentation, but that will have to wait until I get used to my new work schedule.
