Did I see Debian?

Nope, it's just Ubuntu 14.10 with a Numix theme. This is pretty much how the windows looks. The only difference is that I don't use gnome but unity. And you're also a linux user? Do you use Manjaro?

Ah I'm sorry. I indeed use Manjaro, XFCE DE. But that is not the only distro I use. I also have a laptop with the net install of Manjaro where I set up bspwm and I also have a usb stick with an Antergos gnome install. As you can see, I quite like Arch based distributions. Too bad I haven't installed Arch yet though :P

The Pacman package manager is just so brilliant. I find apt quite devious, to be honest. But that may be because I haven't really researched it in great detail yet.

That's cool! I've never worked with Arch based distributions. I've only used Ubuntu(on my laptop now), Linux Mint(for my old Windows Xp pc), Tails on my usb and sometime Fedora. I have some new pcs lying around, I may give Manjaro a try. It looks so cool with bspwm.
I think apt is just the easiest package manager ever. Especially for linux starters, pacman is like pacman -S gnome and apt is like apt-get install gnome it's more human readable.

Yeah go ahead and spin up a vm with manjaro net install, it's really awesome and takes away some hassles which come with an Arch linux install. Prepare to read some documentation though.

Apt may be easier to read but it takes so long to type. Then there is also that unlogical way to search for packages apt-cache search vim or something like that, while in pacman it is just an extra 's' pacman -Ss vim.

Yeah I will do! I'm only not a fan of a vm if I install it I will do it on a real machine immediately!

I totally agree with that, but if you want a package using apt-get I don't think there are a lot of people who use that to search. If you type something like apt-get install gno and you TAB you'll see the whole list of gnome dependencies. It's just that Ubuntu comes with apt-get...

If you have a spare computer lying around you can use as a testbench, then that is what you should do! I too prefer a physical machine above a vm, but sadly I don't have an unlimited stack of them at my disposal.
