It's main purpose is to demonstrate how Linux could function with a less unix-like file structure, in an effort to make it more intuitive to use, and to make it possible to have multiple versions of a library/package without conflict.
I personally really love what they attempted, but it's unfortunately not been adopted anywhere else, making it unpractical to use as a daily driver.
But it serves as a very successful experiment that hopefully someday inspires change or a new way of thinking about the Linux file structure for other distros.

Always liked the idea of GoboLinux, but haven't yet gotten around to trying it.

What exactly is GoBo Linux ? I have not heard of it yet?
