[SOLVED] Zorin V. Ubuntu???

[Cvint]

Can someone explain the major differences and maybe the abilitities or atriubites that id be missing with either or.

It's like asking "Whats the difference between Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic"...

WHy not just install them (in a Virtual Machine like VirtualBox) and try for yourself?
The differences are more visual than functional. Zorin is based on Ubuntu, which itself is based on Debian, so they will have (more or less) same kernel, packages etc.

Zorin is targeted toward newbies, with Windows-like look and feel, but don't get lured because of this.

Being based on the same Linux platform, what exists on one can almost certainly be installed or configured on the other.

Most folks can do pretty much the same things with either...

(I preferred the look of Zorin when I tinkered with it a few years ago, as I was not personally a fan of Ubuntu's desktop system/'look')
