and the differences between whole distros are actually much deeper than what you will see first because what you actually see is the DE (desktop environment) and stuff around and in it. Most commonly GNOME, XFCE or KDE. Also nobody goes out their way just to make their OS obscure as hell. Those people are rare and they wouldn't let a noob on their machine anyway ;) * +
