1. Why have you started to use Linux? Did you use other operating systems before choosing Linux?
I used to be a Microsoft user since DOS 6.20 and Windows 3.11 days. I had read something about Rad Hat Linux 7.1 in a computer magazine, got curious and tried it out. I liked the system, stability, concepts and philosophy behind. So started to use GNU/Linux as my default OS from early 2002.
2. What made you consider starting/joining the development of an 'alternative' distribution?
We had made a customized live CD to deploy GNU/Linux based workstations at work. Something that exactly met our needs, then we decided to make it public and started the project. The feedback was very interesting. Parsix gained some popularity among the Persian speaking GNU/Linux community very soon, and now we have many users over many countries and an active community.
3. What did the 'big' distributions lack (or had too much of)?
Parsix is designed to be 'Ready To Go' and 'Simple'. It contains the most common desktop applications and provides desktop optimized hardware compatibility to make life easier for users, specially newbie ones. Meta distros like Debian need extra customizations to be fully optimized for a certain need. I believe this is not a defect or lack for meta distros. Indeed its very hard to offer a system to be optimized for all needs, without any financial sponsors.
4. What do you say to those who think the Linux world should be more united and focus on co-operation rather then resolve problems by forking projects?
I think its GNU/Linux and free software nature. This provides freedom of choice and better support via the community. I believe that the most important development and improvements are made in the upstream projects and meta distros. In many cases, improvements made in derived distros, go back to the upstream in different ways too.
5. Is Parsix your primary operating system? How many other distros have you used so far? Which ones?
Yes. Of course. As I told, I started with Red Hat 7.1. Since Red Hat 8 days, GNU/Linux is my default OS. After Red Hat I switched to SUSE 8.1 and 8.2, Libranet, Debian, and Parsix.
6. What is Parsix's killer feature(s)?
Parsix is 'Ready To Go' and 'Simple'. Our goal is to provide the most recent stable GNOME desktop over Debian testing branch and a customized kernel to support the most recent desktop and laptop hardware. This combination is bound with some default configuration and an easy to use installer into a live-CD. So we keep the purity and the spirit of a Debian based system that has configured to be ready.
7. What do you consider the largest obstacle for mass deployment of Linux on the desktop?
GNU/Linux has very better desktop support these days and its fairly usable for many kind of users. I think more promotion is needed. Users should know GNU/Linux better. Companies offering GNU/Linux commercial support should handle this problem if they want to gain some market share.

graficky na vysokej urovni, naposledy som testoval Betu, ale bolo to OK. stoji za vyskusanie
Ok, dalsie distro postavene na debiane. Okrem vzhladu neponuka asi nic nove.Alebo sa mylim? Aka je pridana hodnota tohto distra? Ready to go? To mam aj v ubuntu. Najnovsi kernel a gnome si dam dohodit viem aj sam.Pre mna je tato distibucia len novy wallpaper + GTK tema
rozdiely oproti ubuntu su take, ze to nevychadza z ubuntu, ale priamo z debianu.
to ano. ale ubuntu a debian nepouzivaju binarne rovnake balicky, ani len verzie casto nie su rovnake. a parsix proste pouziva (okrem ineho) balicky z debianu, nie z ubuntu. len tolko som tym chcel povedat.
je to proste distribucia pre ludi, ktori by si debian nezvladli nainstalovat ci nakonfigurovat. a je to iranske distro, nie primarne "celosvetove". takze asi tak.
roznava zdravi dedinu roka 200x (uz neviem kolko to bolo) - aj ked inak som rudna, ale to by tu nikto nepoznal (a obci s menom rudna je viac)
