      Zorin will also run on systems that I can't get Mint, Fedora, or Ubuntu to run on. It's surprising how few resources it needs to run well.

        Interesting. It's Ubuntu under the hood.

            Interesting that the resources are so much less than other things that Ubuntu powers.

              @scottalanmiller I think that likely centers around the types of optimization they do to it, and likely, their desktop environment too.

                No he's saying that since it's Ubuntu under the hood it Ubuntu should work most anywhere Zorin does.

                  Except that Ubuntu is far more system intensive (and god ugly to look at)

                    If it is Ubuntu under the hood, it can't be Ubuntu that is so intensive.

                      Just threw up a virtual machine to try the new one out on, VirtualBox V 5.1.4r110228 (yeah, I need to update) defaults to Oracle Linux when you put zorin in as the name of the vm. Still waiting on the download.

                        Man, that looks lots better than most desktops. Don't think it will draw me away from KDE yet tho.

                          Zorin is gorgeous. They've been doing a good job for a while. Very popular with people coming over from Windows.
