I'm looking for a full-fledged fully functional Linux distro with enlightenment. Can you recommend any that I can use as a primary OS? Thanks.

We used to have OzOs (http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ozos), but I don't think they've done anything for a while.

Then again... Ubuntu is IMO a good distro and you can install the Enlightenment DE. Crazy I know right?!

There is MoonOS which has E. It may seem dormant, but development has already started on the next version. Development is slow though, BUT, MoonOS is a great distro!

Good old E. I really like E, but development is really slow. Too bad it wasn't more universal.

I installed Bodhi Linux and was pleasantly surprised to see that it looks so nice. It makes Windows 7 look like a neanderthal. If it turns out to be stable and smooth-running, I'll use it a lot, I think.

Right. So bodhi = Ubuntu LTS + efl/e17 from svn. Stable and up-to-date with e.
