Technology

Love it. Just wrote a separate comment about it. I ran the free versions for over a year, then decided to go to paid just to support the project. Paid gives you GUI for appearance adjustments and desktop "personalization" but not a whole lot else; other than superficials like that, under the hood the free version is exactly the same. I can't remember what the Zorin folks say about it, get the details directly from them of course, but IMO don't feel like you have to buy the paid version to get a true taste of how it will work for you.

EDITED to add: This incessant, eternal negging shit from the Linux crowd kept me away from Linux for a long time. I found OPs question legitimate, which is why I answered it, but whether you like Zorin or not noobs should not be downvoted for simply soliciting opinions on a distro. I'm very fortunate that some people were generous enough with their time and answering questions to make me give it another go, but there were over thirty years between the first time I tried Red Hat that came on a dozen 3.25" floppies in the early 90s, and last year when I tried Linux again: that absence had EVERYTHING to do with the core haters that apply purity tests to any mention of any Linux distro that they personally find some fault in. Seriously, for the sake of Linux, shut the fuck up and piss off, unless you're just concern trolling for Microsoft or some shit, in which case you're doing a fine job, never stop.
