Ever since it first appeared on the Linux scene, Linux Mint has
been an attractive Linux flavor for desktop usability.
Linux Mint founder Clem Lefebvre has been a leading voice for
alternatives to Gnome 3's Unity and Shell, providing users with
viable Gnome based alternatives. The Mint 14 release provides
the latest version of the MATE and Cinnamon Linux desktops as
well as providing users with the latest Linux goodness. Linux
Mint is based on Ubuntu 12.10 and leverages the Linux 3.5
kernel.
Mint 14 includes MATE version 1.4 which according to the release
notes, " …not only strengthens the quality and stability of the
desktop but it goes beyond GNOME 2 by fixing bugs which were in
GNOME 2 for years and by providing new features which were
previously missing."
While MATE is based on Gnome 2, Cinnamon is based on Gnome 3 and
provides it's own set of innovations with Linux Mint 14.
"Within this release cycle, Cinnamon developed at an amazing
pace and its development was frozen in preparation for Linux
Mint 14," the release notes state. "The result is impressive and
despite all these new features, Cinnamon 1.6 is more stable than
its predecessor."
One of the key new features in Cinnamon 1.4 is the Nemo file
browser which is intended as a improvement over the Nautilus
file browser that is typically the default in Gnome.

Linux Mint KDE is another quality KDE distribution that you can
choose from. It's actually based on Ubuntu which will still give
you access to those repositories giving you easy access to
installing software that you need.
