Q4OS is a Linux distribution based on Debian and is designed to provide a familiar (Trinity) environment to the Windows user considering switching operating systems.
The distribution has simple accessories and provides fixed APIs for complex third-party applications such as Google Chrome, VirtualBox, and various development tools.
It is a fast and powerful operating system that offers a highly productive work environment, with security, reliability, long-term stability and the conservative integration of verified new Linux features.
The system is distinguished by its speed and very low hardware requirements. It works perfectly with brand new machines as well as with old computers.
The system is also very useful for virtual cloud environments because of the very low hardware requirements.
From appearance until the installation of applications, everything resembles Microsoft's operating system. If you pay attention to the images, you will notice that even the app installers seem to be from another platform…
