Savoring Flavors of Linux: LinuxMint

Linux Mint

LinuxMint is another Ubuntu/Debian based distribution of Linux and has a large user community. The latest version Helena is build off Ubuntu's latest version, Karmic Koala. I tried playing around with the Live CD. While it offers great eye candy and some good applications, it did not provide any strong reason to switch over from Ubuntu or Kubuntu. Having said that, it does make a decent desktop.
