Wanted to highly recommend this distro. I just got the latest version and it's great. Not only is the additional, community based package installer great, but the already setup of samba, Compiz, ect really makes it swell. Good stuff.

It looks like polished Debian/Ubuntu with more development attention. I like how they focus (even further than Ubuntu) on it working right out-of-the-box. The biggest complaint with most people and Linux is that it's too hard to set up.

Pretty cool, I'll have to give it a whirl.

So... I gave this a try the other day and really wasn't too impressed. I'm not sure anything has really changed from Ubuntu other than Mint was even less compatible with most of my hardware.

I wish the board didn't cut off your giant pics Garr.

Yeah, I wished that too, and OOPS - some javascript appeared on the page that resizes them.
