[Mingwei Liu]

BioInfoServOS is a specially customised system for scientists handling and analysing biological data, but also for easy use of daily official business handing.

BioInfoServOS is with english and simple chinese language supporting, which was reconstructed from xUbuntu 6.06 ( Hweed-Linux desktop 1.01, http://www.hiweed.com) by Dr. Mingwei Liu on Jan., 2007.

You can broswer the offical website (manly in simple chinese): www.bioinfowerv.org
to download the Live DVD iso to install it in english or simple chinese:
