It’s time to pay attention to Intel’s Clear Linux OS project

Intel's Clear Linux Project has been on my radar for months, mainly because of its sheer dominance over traditional Linux distributions - and often Windows - when it comes to performance. From time to time I check in on the latest Phoronix benchmarks and think to myself "I really need to install that." Up until recently though, the installer for Clear Linux was anything but intuitive for the average user. It also looked considerably dated. Version 2.0 gives the installer a complete overhaul. Aside from the fact it runs Gnome - which is not something I'd want to use - the main issue I have with this project is that it's from Intel. The processor giant has had many Linux projects in the past, but it often just abandons them or doesn't really know what to do with them.
