So what is it with Mint ?  I've seen it highly praised in a number of 
places, but when I've looked at the mint web site, it mostly seems to 
boast about not being geeky and having a nice colour scheme. Technical 
stuff is not prominently displayed. I'm all for not putting off lay 
users, but...

I assume if it's like U++ there's more to it than that ?  Is there a 
technical edge ?  Better testing ?  Fewer bugs ?


Cheers, J/.
