XpLike Ubuntu again

[B. Henry]

You were unclear as to your past experience, or actually mentioned nothing, so as is usually the case people try and give more basic information than may be called for just in case. 
You certainly miss the main point though. 
The interface must be accessible, and I for one tried to steer you towards how to investigate this. 
I and others mentioned that you are not going to have that great of an experiennce with any Ubuntu spin-off based on 11.04 as it's not supported and newer orcas wouldn't be able to run on it even if the iterface were accessible. 
Lastly, if this is the last version of the distro you mention available it's a sign that it's either no longer maintained, or not popular enough to be maintained agressively. 
It may be a very stable ad comfortable interface, but if it's so good why does it ever get any attention  from pop tech writers who'd love to give XP die-hards something to use. That last one is certainly ot a definitive argument, and my opinion of pop-tech bloggers and reporters is mixed with more being yet more examples of folks living in data echo chambers and otherwise not worth reading than actual qualified and motivated tech journalists, but...
As for HKK's comment, unless this is something different from what I've heard about, (yes, and even know ppl who've tried), it's not what Mint's been using. 
I think one of the interfaces that Mint had available was partly accessible, but would like to hear from anyone with any experience. 
Was it the mate interface, or sinimun, (or neither), that was somewhat accessible with Orca?

Also, i'm interested in what you prefer, Linny, in straight Ubuntu over Vinux, and of course which Ubuntu and Vinux releases  were you comparing?
