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

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. http://64studio.com/ Cheers Daniel
