Linux Mint, or what is missing in Ubuntu

I am using Ubuntu Linux. I like him. However, after installing it, it took about an hour to adjust to the proper level. And recently I discovered Linux Mint , which is a modified ubuntu.

• Includes all necessary codecs.
  Integrated with Microsoft Windows (support for reading / writing to NTFS, Windows migration assistant, automatic addition of Windows to the bootloader).
  It has a convenient control center, mintMenu, which replaces the gnome (hello openSUSE).
  The basic bundle includes OpenOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird, Gimp, Pidgin, XChat, Amarok, etc.
  Provides a 3D desktop out of the box (Compiz and Beryl).
  Easy to install and configure.
  
  Finally, it is fully compatible with ubuntu and its repositories.
