Bluestar Linux’s main goal seems to be to provide a user-friendly version of Arch Linux, on which it’s based.
Its SourceForge page puts this in more colourful terms, stating it’s “built with an understanding that people want … a solid operating system that provides a breadth of functionality and ease of use without sacrificing aesthetics”.
