Linux for the Desktop

All Linux distros should attempt to be as user friendly as possible, that's the sign of a polished well made OS. And no distro should ever become complacent about the quality of it's UX, all distros should always strive to make things better, every time a new user becomes confused, their experience should be used to refine the UX design to make the OS better.I like Linux Mint because it attempts to be as user friendly as possible. Some people call this approach "A beginner Linux distro". I disagree. Linux Mint is a distro for all users, new and experienced.
