I really appreciate the mention on the show! It's awesome to hear that some people have taken notice of our work While we haven't done a whole lot as of late, we're still actively developing Overclockix and taking requests so if there is something you would like to see, just let me know.

Used it for the first time a couple weeks ago to troubleshoot one of my computers. It comes in handy. Any plans to upgrade the version of Memtest86+ though? The version that's on there (4.19?) kind of just sat there when I used it on my desktop, but the one on my Kubuntu disc (4.20) seemed to run fine. Kind of a n00b when it comes to modifying that type of thing myself

But aside from that, it's nice for stress testing a computer to make sure it doesn't screw up installing the OS. Might point it out to my boss at the IT department, depending on if there are any license agreement issues >.>

I bet we can get that worked in. Thanks for pointing out the updated version.

Yeah, it currently pulls in memtest from the Debian stable repos which are always out of date by design I've been wanting to experiment with grabbing packages from testing and backports so this could be a great exercise.
