It is based on Ubuntu’s core and comes with two versions - a free and a premium version (which basically ships with more software and few more ‘Zorin’ themes), and they both include proprietary multimedia codecs by default. ‘Zorin’ achieves this default look through a combination of ‘Avant Window Navigator’ (application dock), its own theme, Compiz window manager and Gnome 3 applications, mainly. One of the reasons why I was attracted to it was because its desktop resembled a traditional Microsoft Windows desktop (users can easily make it look like Windows 7, XP or Gnome Classic by using its own ‘Look changer’ utility) which is quite deliberately designed to look that way, and that got it somewhat highlighted in the long list of other distributions. ‘Zorin’ is a GNU/Linux distribution that I always wanted to try but never had the chance to do so.
