IN BRIEF
MakuluLinux has a bold and brassy appearance. It has a fast change theme selection tool that can greatly alter the layout, all the way from a modern icon bar dock to something more conventional. Gamers will appreciate the built-in media and gaming support. Underneath it all, it's based on Ubuntu and Debian, giving it a good foundation.
SPECS
CPU: 64-bit only
Memory: 2GB RAM (minimum)
Builds: Shift - the standard build Shift Pro - a premium (paid for) version Droid - with Android app compatibility
MakuluLinux Shift edition uses parts of Ubuntu and Debian Testing as its base, and it’s a rolling release. Expect a bit of extra visual glamour at every stage of its use, and this includes booting into the live ISO, where you’re greeted with an animation sequence (complete with musical accompaniment) that sums up the main features of the distribution.
