Default Zorin OS 6 Core review - I like it very much

Take a deep breath. Here's a very long, enthusiastic review of Zorin OS 6 Core, a Ubuntu-based distribution, tested on a laptop with 64-bit processor, Intel graphics and SSD, covering live session, installation and daily use, including Wireless, Bluetooth, Samba sharing, look & feel, Windows-like desktop integration, multimedia - Flash, MP3, Apple trailers (QuickTime, iTunes), Microsoft Media Server (MMS) streaming, desktop effects out of the box, quadruple boot install setup, user account import, audio-video enabled slideshow, package management, applications choice, look changer, web manager, web camera, backup, printing to a Samba-shared Windows printer over Wireless, system resources, suspend & resume, stability, some small niggles, and more. Exhale, inhale, expand, expand! Read. Now.
