We are pleased to announce the first public beta of MX-15 (codename 'Fusion')
based on the reliable and stable Debian Jessie (8.2) with extra enhancements from our packaging team.
Just like MX-14, this release defaults to sysVinit (though systemd is available once installed for those that prefer to use it).

Available in 32 and 64 bit.
The 32 bit version (c1.1GB) ships with 2 stable 3.16 Debian kernels (pae and non-pae), while
the 64 bit (c1GB) comes with the more recent kernel 4.2-3 liquorix kernel to cater for newer hardware.
