Artyom Zorin has announced the availability of the release candidate for Zorin OS 6, a user-friendly desktop Linux distribution based on Ubuntu 12.04: \"The Zorin OS team is very proud to release the Zorin OS 6 Core release candidate, the pre-release version of our ground-breaking new operating system. Zorin OS 6 has been our most significant leap forward since our initial release nearly 3 years ago. At the core of Zorin OS 6 lies our new, unique desktop environment named 'Zorin Desktop' instead of the Unity, GNOME Shell and Cinnamon offerings. Zorin Desktop embraces all of the latest and greatest of open-source software and technologies such as GTK+ 3 and other software from the GNOME 3 software stack, all without affecting the familiarity and usability of the desktop which still retains its Windows 7-like default look.
