PLEASE NOTE: You will not receive support from https://zorin.com/ if you don't like that you can buy a copy
ZorinOS is based on Ubuntu.
I believe charging for themes and bundled software in a Linux distro is wrong unless that distro is built completely from scratch.
I am of the opinion ZorinOS should charge for support rather than charging for themes and bundled free software.
$48USD (ZorinOS Pro price as of writing) is also too expensive for the services they provide.
THIS IS NOT PIRACY!
I am not modifying/stealing any of their code nor am I providing any of their IP.
See raw/NOTICE.txt for more info.
Copy the command below, paste in your terminal, enter your password when prompted, follow the scripts' prompts, and reboot when it tells you to. You should now be running the pro version of Zorin OS!
You can use the -U flag to do an unattended installation if needed.

It does not delete installed keys or optional extra packages.
