It's Mint Linux, so not exactly reinventing the wheel if you are familiar with linux at all.
Some people are impressed with the UI/theme treatment, but I found it to be abhorrent within 20 minutes - but that's more of a personal preference issue I suppose. I found the blue to be brutal on the eyes and cheap/goofy/gimmicky looking myself, and I never cared for Gnome much, and always disliked Compvis with a passion. I prefer a more svelte Linux distro.
Wasn't for me, but you might enjoy it if the following info/screenie appeals to you at all.
