Introducing Project Liberation. Welcome to the revolution...

When GEM first arrived on the PC it caused a revolution. It was simple, quick, and easy-to-use. Now it's time for another revolution. OpenGEM is about to turn the DOS GUI world upsidedown. There is a new member of the OpenGEM family. We'd like to introduce Project Liberation, based on the software behind OpenGEM Experimental.

Project Liberation is a whole new type of OpenGEM, and it's such a leap forward it'll blow your socks off.

Project Liberation has a new 3D interface, with a neat modern pointer set, a beautiful new default system font, and cool new icons:

Project Liberaton will automatically detect the disk drives on your machine, and neatly display them on its desktop just like this:

It'll even happily show the contents of all the common text file formats through it's nifty internal viewer:

And let's not forget that it can run DOS applications simply by double-clicking them. It's all so simple.

Project Liberation looks better than OpenGEM ever did before. It is better than OpenGEM ever was before. And it's just as reliable as OpenGEM always has been.

Oh, and did we mention that Project Liberation is 100% DR GEM, FreeGEM and OpenGEM compatible? Not many GNU GPL projects can boast that kind of compatibility. It even makes old GEM applications look better.

Project Liberation is still beta software. We're making sure everything works before we start shipping it as a completed product. But you can download it right now from the OpenGEM website.
