Edubuntu's default GUI is Unity while GNOME is still available.[1] Unity has been the default GUI since the release of 12.04. Since release 7.10, KDE is also available as Edubuntu KDE. Since Ubuntu 10.04, the Edubuntu community has also worked[2] with the Qimo 4 Kids project to provide a Qimo desktop that is Xfce based.
