> Everything is really polished and well done.

I'm using Elementary OS right now. It's pretty, but it's really no more polished than Ubuntu. In fact, it just mostly uses the same Ubuntu repositories. That's not a bad thing, but it's worth keeping in mind that Elementary OS is as good as it is because it's building on Ubuntu.



I wonder how Canonical feel about Elementary making money off an operating system that receives updates from archive.ubuntu.com


Probably the same way the Debian folks feel about Canonical making money from an operating system built on Debian.


It really doesn't matter how they feel though.


It all seems a bit similar to Red Star OS.


>making money

I highly doubt they're turning a profit.
