I've tried it.. 
They basically use a lot of "shortcuts and cheats" to make it feel very slick..
Many of the "tricks" they use cause problems with gaming and
wine/cedega so it was no good for me.
Plus I found the Lead manager Andreas to be bloody irrational and irritable.
After being put on their Dev mail list by some of the other devs for
some of the work I started doing for them, Andreas spat the dummy and
got quite insulting when I made a suggestion.
They can have it.. personally it feels like a "Flash in the Pan" Distro  to me.
