Mint never ceases to impress me. Mint 15 runs faster off of a live cd for me than ubuntu 12.04 LTS does natively. I presume this is something to do with unity and all the underlying bloat that is becoming more and more of a defining characteristic of ubuntu these days. I don't have anything against unity in user interface terms; I think it's a pretty decent GUI and doesn't deserve the flak it gets from the linux community. Nevertheless, Cinnamon is a triumph of clean, simple, and utilitarian UI design and trumps any other conventional UI on GNU/Linux I've ever used, and the underlying design of Mint seems to ensure there's never any slow down getting in the way of getting things done.

Keep up the good work Mint
