Re: [orca-list] Taking the plunge --- well sort of

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

mate and ubuntu is like comparing apples to oranges.  Ubuntu is an
operating system and mate is a desktop manager two different things
entirely.  Actually, you can download a ubuntu-mate iso and install that
if you like.  Unity gnome mate X11 blackbox metacity enlightenment kde
qt are all desktop managers.  Debian, ubuntu archlinux blackarch mint
antergos fedora are all operating systems.
