Linux Mint is an operating system based on the Linux distribution Ubuntu.

The purpose of Linux Mint is to produce a modern, elegant and comfortable operating system which is both powerful and easy to use.

List of features:

  • works out of the box, with full multimedia support and is extremely easy to use;
  • both free of cost and open-source;
  • community-driven;
  • based on Debian and Ubuntu, it provides about 30,000 packages and one of the best software managers;
  • safe and reliable. Thanks to a conservative approach to software updates, a unique Update Manager and the robustness of its Linux architecture, Linux Mint requires very little maintenance (no regressions, no antivirus, no anti-spyware...etc).
