XBMCbuntu is effectively XBMC installed alongside Ubuntu, so you can either fire up XBMC in its own session or run an Ubuntu desktop.
OpenElec is much lighter, and a custom Linux distro designed pretty much purely for XBMC (though it includes additional services like TVHeanded backends etc.) and you don't have the option of running a desktop.
