 Great OS. It is stable. Though it is fully packed with nice engneering/science/mathematics applications, its image size is below 6GB. It is a single place to have a feel of how great things can be done with free software. It is equally useful for practicing engineers and engineering students alike. The students can have not only a feel of all sorts of works that is being done by software, but it can be also useful for understanding engineering.

I never had any problem downloading or installing it. In fact, I am using it in dual boot mode but working on it most of the time.
