    Excuse me whilst I cringe.

    Erm.

    Oh dear.

    Read the review of it here.

    You know, even without Hannah Montana's name, logo and face plastered all over the distro, It is still has a hideous color scheme with all the purple and green highlights.

    That being said...

    If teenage girls will be drawn in by the marketing concepts, doesn't it actually promote ubuntu and the linux kernel vs. other OS'es?

    p.s. I still hate dislike it.

    Yes, it's butt ugly. However, if it gets some strange children with no sense of taste into Linux, then mission accomplished.

    When I first saw this I thought it was a put-on, but it's cropped up so many times I've started to believe in it. Admit it, it's crossed your mind to boot it up and see what it looks like.
