Meanwhile, you can read my review on Peppermint OS 4 here: http://mylinuxexplore.blogspot.in/2013/06/peppermint-os-four-review-linux-mint-of.html<br /><br />Peppermint OS comes with LXDE desktop which is more efficient than Voyager's XFCE. But, Voyager brings a lot on the table in terms of features.

I've discovered Voyager a week ago in Distrowatch and it was so beautiful that I now have it permanently installed in my netbook and it's the first distro using Xfce that I really like.
