ŽJames Bond 007 ...

by Christopher Walken. Zorin plans to destroy Silicon Valley
by causing an earthquake in order to control the microchip
market.
The villain (Max Zorin): A former KGB agent who became a
brilliant but insane industrialist. ...
Couldn' t they give it another name?

It comes with touch screen and on-screen keyboard already installed, which
LM doesn't.

The listing on the right of the Distrowatch page, is sorted
by web hit rate. If you search for Zorin in the upper left box,
then the statistic in the right column would be bumped by one.
It doesn't mean a distro is good, it means "people have temporarily
developed an interest in it". That is different than the
ratings page where people rate a distro as in 8/10.
The right hand column has been "gamed" by people with
access to Botnets. If you see a distro suddenly shoot up
in the rating, humans didn't do that. Humans provided the
money, bots did the work.

"Oct 2, 2019 ... Zorin OS co-founder Artyom Zorin <=== somebodies name
goes way beyond just talking about an awesome Linux
distribution."
The distro seems to be associated with Ireland. The
word/name may be traceable to a Slavic language.
It's not a Bond villain particularly :-)
Will it make Windows users happy ? Not with that menu. The
menu contents seem a bit spartan on the free version. Windows
users didn't like using a Back button in Windows 8, and
they're not going to like that style of menu and having
to click Back either. Menus which maintain visual context
as you drill down ("I am in the Utilities menu, but I have
other options I see I can use if the Utilities do not pan out"),
that's part of a good menu scheme. Leaving things
visible, is not "blinding" people as to what the
level above looks like. You maintain navigation context
that way.
