Arch Linux For Newbies? Manjaro Is Here! 120
Penurious Penguin writes "Well within the top ten Linux distros, Arch Linux has a strong following for sure. But with an installation process requiring a little more involvement than the average distro, not every prospective user is ready to embrace the Arch Way, and understandably so. This is where Manjaro steps in. With a 100% compatibility with Arch, uncompromising adherence to principia KISS and a pre-configured Xfce, — or alternatively available GNOME & KDE — those who've been hesitating to explore Arch now have a few less excuses.
And a little side-note for those still bitter about the lack of package-signing: You'll be glad to know that Arch fully implemented package-signing in June of 2012."

Its very neat, right until you get bitten by the bleeding edge software updates.
I've had my system rendered unbootable or at least without working wifi or graphics drivers a few times after updating.
Its a nice linux distro with a russian roulette feature built-in
