A live CD version of Core is available for those who wish to try it out. Shipping costs of physical media is 3 Euros so it is cheaper to download in most cases. All premium versions are priced at 10 Euros (~13USD) except Ultimate which is 15 (~20USD). The Ultimate edition includes all of the previously noted software.The Business edition is oriented toward small- and medium-size startup companies.The Multimedia version includes tools for creation and working with various media applications.The Gaming version includes a selection of games.Zorin Core as previously noted is one of the free versions and is a baseline Ubuntu 11.04 distribution.There are two versions specifically designed for schools - the Educational and Educational lite.Zorin comes in several versions and either 32 bit or 64 bit architectures: Zorin Core provides the same UI but the distro installs with fewer extra programs to update and maintain. The other machines are kept busy doing distributed processing work for BOINC projects like SETI, Einstein and LHC so their OS and UI needs are minimal. Zorin OS 5 Ultimate gave my workstation the baseline Ubuntu 11.04 plus the Gnome desktop with features that keep the UI very straightforward and clean. The reason for the changes was quite simple. After a week or so I liked it so much I upgraded to Zorin OS 5 Ultimate and installed Zorin Core (the free version) on my other machines. I changed my Ubuntu workstation from an Ubuntu Ultimate Edition distro to Zorin OS 5 Core.
