Peppermint OS One
Booting & Login
When you first start Peppermint OS One, you’ll see a message saying “Automatic Boot in 5 Seconds” and then Peppermint OS will boot into the Live CD desktop. You can install Peppermint OS or simply use the Live CD version to play with it.
Bootsplash
After installing, you’ll see the Peppermint OS bootsplash screen pop up for a few seconds. Then it disappears and the login screen appears. This works fine until you update your system (more on that in the problems section of the review).
Peppermint OS One takes you to the login menu from this bootsplash screen.
Login Screen
The login screen has the Peppermint OS logo, candy graphic and the gorgeous red/black wallpaper in the background.
The login screen features the colorful Peppermint OS One wallpaper in the background.

Superb distro! I love Mint, and PeppermintOS is a fantastic LXDE distribution. Lubuntu/Mint combination, super!
The wallpaper would fit best a distro called CinammonOS. :-)
I have gOS 8.04.2 or whatever the latest update is and it’s on my Gateway laptop. It is one of the oldest of the early distros that started experimenting with the Web and the cloud. Maybe I ought to replace it with this Peppermint OS. I’ll consider it. gOS has actually been a pretty good OS for me these past couple of years.
So if I add Mozilla Prism, Google Docs, and Dropbox to my Ubuntu install, do I have a cool “cloud OS” ?
Wait, for that matter, I could get an even cooler “cloud OS” by adding Google Docs, a VPN, and an online storage service to Windows Vista and I’d be living in the cloud!
[...] review on slashdot– I’ve covered a lot of remastered versions of Ubuntu since DLR launched. But, every once in a while, I bump into one that is particularly interesting to review. Peppermint OS One is definitely in that category. [...]
Looks interesting though some parts (such as links to Hulu, Last.FM, and Pandora) are useless for non US users. Still, an interesting idea in a “cloud OS”.
why the hell are you watching a video of a squirrel being skinned ?
I installed Peppermint Os today. In the past I used PcLinuxOS XFCE which I found too slow on my Thinkpad R40e. In the few hours I am using it I am very surprised about this fast distro. It looks also very stable and has all the new updates including Firefox 3.6.3. I am very enthusiastic and going to use it for a while. Therefore I want tgive the developer a compliment and advice others to use this new exciting distro.
I was about to link to this review, but that was until I saw the YouTube screenshot. Was this really the best YouTube screenshot you could find ?!? I second gino, a previous commenter on this review.
I really hope you can include another YouTube screenshot, because this takes the quality from your Peppermint review.
