Dreamy Dreamlinux
Dreamlinux is a Debian-based distribution that offers you a choice of GNOME or Xfce window managers as well as an extremely simple installation and scripts to install popular programs not found in the Debian repositories. With included programs for communication, graphics, and music, plus OpenOffice.org, it covers most general desktop needs, and installation and configuration are a breeze. Besides a few minor bugs that didn't cause any problems, my experience with Dreamlinux was entirely positive.
From the bootloader onward Dreamlinux displays impressive graphics. A lot of time seems to have been spent customizing the artwork and themes so they work well together. At boot I selected Xfce over GNOME for the live CD, thinking that using Xfce would lower memory overhead for the install. If you don't wish to install Linux, the live CD is fully functional at this point (except for drivers you may need for Compiz) so you can test things out first.
To install Dreamlinux on your hard drive you can run the install shortcut on the desktop. The installer is very simple, with only a single well-laid-out form. It wasn't without a few problems, however, although nothing was serious.
