Perhaps you've already installed Twister OS on your Raspberry Pi and would now like to replicate the experience on your Desktop PC or laptop, or maybe you're just looking for an alternative to running Windows? Whatever your interest, Twister OS/UI makes a great day to day operating system, and in this video we'll be setting it up on a regular x86 PC.

From downloading the software and preparing the underlying foundation, to customising the desktop and configuring the applications, we'll go step by step through the process of getting this highly versatile system up and running on your hardware. Then we'll look at replicating the experience between Pi and PC as closely as is reasonably possible.

By the time we're done, you'll be switching from SBC (Single Board Computer) to Big PC (desktop or laptop) with the same great set-up on both of them.
