Easy to use, familiar desktop

The main goal of Zorin OS is to give Windows users easy access to Linux. That is why Zorin OS incorporates the familiar Windows 7-like interface by default to dramatically reduce the learning curve of this system while still experiencing the main advantages of Linux. Users can also utilise their desktop with other interfaces. This is thanks to the exclusive Zorin Look Changer which lets you change your desktop to look and act like either Windows 7, Windows XP or Linux in the free versions of Zorin OS. The Premium versions also include the Windows Vista, 2000 and Mac OS X looks.

  1. Sandy, thank you very much for this overview of the Zorin OS. I have personally been using Zorin for almost a year now, both on dedicated and dual-boot drives and can vouch that it is one of the best and most stable OSs around. It is also very easy to learn, even for complete novices. The number of FREE and Open Source programmes available from the Linux community is overwhelming: more than enough to satisfy the needs of almost anyone in any sphere of operations.
    One of the biggest pluses is that Zorin needs absolutely NO antivirus software! The biggest, however, is that Zorin itself can be downloaded and installed FREE OF CHARGE and once installed on a computer hard drive, the user need never shell out any money for programmes to do any and everything he or she wants to do.
    Once again, thank you for highlighting this absolutely incredible operating system on your blog.
