Been awhile since I tried Linux Mint. Have no interest in using Ubuntu so went straight for the latest Debian Edition beta which was just released. This feels like such a solid release, which makes sense due to its Debian base. I really like Cinnamon and the suite of utility tools Mint ships with.

As someone who typically uses Debian, I can see me using this as a permanent desktop OS as the changes and additions the Mint team add to Debian seem to be nothing but positive.

Well worth checking out!

Is this what installs by default? I just installed Cinnamon on my windows laptop and am not sure what this is all about. Anyway I was very impressed with it might even switch from OCLP/MacOS on my aging Macs.
