===Why are there so many different Linux distributions?===
===Why are there so many different Linux distributions?===
Different Linux distributions (i.e. operating systems) have been developed fo different types of users, for different purposes, and for different hardware capacities. For example, distributions such as ''Mint'' or ''Zorin'' are specifically designed to apply to newcomers or those without technical expertise. At the other end of the scale, distributions such as ''Arch'' are designed for computer enthusiasts. Manjaro is designed to bridge that gap. Different '''flavours''' of a distribution means it comes with different desktop environments - you're not just stuck with whatever desktop you're given.
