What is Dreamlinux ?
•Dreamlinux is a modern and modular GNU/Linux system that can be run directly from a CD/DVD/USBStick and optionally be installed to a HDD (IDE, SCSI, SATA, PATA and USB Drive).
• Dreamlinux comes with a selection of the best applications designed to meet most of your daily needs.
• Dreamlinux is based on the venerable Debian Operating System, which means it takes advantage of Debian best features and adds its own modern development tools, system scripts and applications.
• Dreamlinux Desktop Edition 3.x offers two options of Desktop Environments to be selected during boot time: Xfce and Gnome.

I have just taken a look at DreamLinux in VirtualBox.
A Linux n00b's first impressions
Like:
Xfce [Note to self:Get Xubuntu]
The default theme [I know that it can be changed, but Ubuntu is so blegh.]
The Control Panel and ADSL setup options.
APT
Don't like:
English translation could be better.
Games not installed by default
Not a criticism of the distribution per se, but I have not been able to find any locally hosted DL repositories yet.

I hate XFCE, give it a few weeks and you will hate it too
Never tried Dreamlinux, but it is Debian-based, which is a plus. Maybe I will look into it some time.
