This is just a Linux distro, right? Not a new operating system.

Yes, but you can get a long way tailoring a Linux distro in a particular way. In an extreme example, Android is a Linux distro.

This is closer to conventional in that it's still Debian and Gnome, but if they are putting development work into making that a cross-platform system then everyone benefits.

yes. But they are so insane about talking like it is a innovative OS that this is probably the biggest reason most people consider their laptops for linux and give up, afraid they won't work well with ubuntu or fedora.
