Brazilian DreamLinux GNU / Linux distribution is a free, modern and modular system. DreamLinux is based on Debian GNU / Linux, but the authors make also their own efforts for the development of tools, system scripts and applications.

It can be run from any device (CD / DVD / USB stick) and installed on the hard disk or USB storage device. Judging by the popularity scale Distrowatchu, DreamLinux is on high 15 position, which is definitely a good result, considering the huge number of really existing distribution.

There is an interesting selection of applications; Launcher for selected visually attractive Engage and AWN (Avant Window Navigator), office tasks will solve OpenOffice.org 2.4 (OpenOffice 3.0 is available through the module or on the DVD), to use the benefits of the Internet there are Pidgin for IM, Thunderbird for e-mail, FireFox 3.0.6, built-in FlashPlayer 10 and implemented Java.
