That didn't sound "fundamental" to me. The author likes the distro, and it sounds good to me too. But I missed how any of his favorite features were fundamental to the Linux desktop.


Absolutely my feeling too. The review fairly swiftly turns into a list of what programs are installed. Let's face it, all of these are available in the repos of pretty much all distros. The rest of the features seem to be visual tuning and customisation.

I haven't tried Fuduntu, but may be tempted at some point, and I can appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it, but this review doesn't really sell it for me.
