“Linux Deepin is a desktop distribution based on Ubuntu Desktop,
but using a modifed GNOME 3 shell, not Ubuntu?s Unity desktop. It
was founded by Liu Wenhuan, who is also a co-founder of Wuhan Linux
User Group (LUG), a LUG in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province,
China.

“Linux Deepin is the third distribution reviewed on this website
that makes use of a heavily-tweaked GNOME 3 desktop. The others are
Pear OS (now known as Comice OS) and KahelOS. (See KahelOS 111111
review, Pear OS Linux Panther 3 review and Pear Linux Comice OS 4
beta 1 review.)

“Like most desktop distributions today, Linux Deepin is made
available for download as a Live ISO installation image. Deepin?s,
both the 32- and 64-bit images, weigh in at about 650 MB. Thus they
are Live CD images.”
