Mint is simply a modification of Ubuntu (whichever is the latest 
release). Uses the same Canonical repos and all. At least this was the 
case when I tried (?)Mint 9.

Ultimate Edition is also a mod of Ubuntu.

I've installed openSUSE 11.3 with the gnome desktop but their mangling 
of the gnome de - compared to Ubuntu - is pathetic. As it seems that 
they are going with Gnome 3 then I sincerely hope that they will get it 
looking like something which is put together by somebody who actually 
has the end-user in mind.
