A comment on Elementary OS.

I've been using the "eGTK" (Elementary GTK) theme for just about a year now. For my money, it's the cleanest, best designed GTK theme Gnome has yet seen. It still doesn't feel as smooth as I'd like, this due I suppose in part to Gnome and the way the desktop environment is integrated, but that said it's still quite nice to look at.

So are you confirming that it's a theme? I think most of us were confused from the title "Elementary OS," and the project didn't have an About page to explain what it was.

It's a theme. See my comment further down to see how to get it up on your Ubuntu.

I think ultimately they want to make it a distro, but for now it only seems to exist as a theme.
