Dream is... promising...
they're still very rough around the edges in terms of eyecandy and, well, everything relly.

I do like the panel ala Mac, but there's something aboutit that jus tdoens't fit.
and my god the installer is _HORRIBLE_, it's overly simple that it makes it confusing.
root and ordinary usernames and passwords were a bit tricky if you don't have a level of savvyness,
same goes for which HDD to install,
the bootloader part gave me the most headache - imagine my horror when I couldn't load into Windows or any other OS.
the progress bar was 'stuck' at some point, then I head on over to their forums and that was 'normal', in fact if I didn't notice my HDD light blinking I would have thought the thing froze on me.
and lastly, I didn't do anything to my PC for like two hours then I noticed this one-liner text at the very bottom of the installation saying the install was complete, a pop up would have been nice.

as it is a debian based system, I was a little excited to use it, but after seeing that my other OSS wouldn't load, the thing didn't last an hour on my PC...
