What do you mean by minimalist? It comes with Abiword, Skype and VLC. I 
couldn't get it to recognize my other hard drive automatically. I think 
I would have had to enter codes at the command line which is beyond my 
ability level. For what I was using it for, if I could have performed 
that one function, then I could have totally replaced Ubuntu with it. I 
need to be able to copy and paste files from one hard drive to another. 
It would be nice also to have a force quit button and some clickable 
icons on the panel. I don't think you can put in a top panel with it, 
either. It is a trade off, though. If it does everything you need, then 
you can use it.
