[linux-audio-announce] 64 Studio - a new distribution for creative x86_64 users

[Daniel James]

Hello all,

64 Studio is a collection of software designed specifically for 
content creation on x86_64 hardware (that's AMD's 64-bit CPUs and 
Intel's EMT64 chips), including audio, video and design applications. 

It's based on the pure 64 port of Debian GNU/Linux, but with a 
specialised package selection and lots of other customisations. It 
will be marketed to hardware OEMs in the creative workstation and 
laptop markets as an alternative to the 64-bit version of Windows XP, 
or OS X on Apple hardware. 

We are currently working on a prototype. Our next step will be a 
CD-ROM installer image which will be distributed to beta testers. If 
you're interested in this project, please see the FAQ on the website, 
or join our mailing list.
