Greetings from Israel

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

The presentations I have problem with are a few professionally-designed PPTX ones; I'm not sure the Open Document format supports all of their features yet.

Give it a year or two and even this will be solved.

Welcome to the forum.   I identify with your reasons for choosing Linux Lite.  For presentations, ask folks to send their Powerpoint ones to you in the open document format, and not the pptx format.  Perhaps that will help you view it using LibreOffice.

Hi Omer. Welcome! 
I love testing distro's over longer periods.
I use Linux Lite 2.8 alongside SolydX and PCLOS 2016 on a 64 bits pc and I'm very happy.

Hi,

My name is Omer Golan-Joel and I am a 34-years-old freelance translator and editor from Yavne, Israel. I discovered Linux last spring and fell in love with it, first using Ubuntu Unity - which I found to be cumbersome to my taste - then Ubuntu MATE and Linux Mint and now Linux Lite. I Find Linux Lite to be the fastest, most stable, and most complete distro I have tried so far. It has no bugs - unlike Ubuntu MATE - and comes front-loaded with most software I need.

I have brought to life a number of old computers using Linux Lite (and Ubuntu MATE). They had Windows XP or Windows 7 and were virtually unusable. With Linux Lite they run very well! Even my old ACER Aspire One netbook with its particularly weak Atom CPU.

I still run Windows 7 64bit on my main computer as I need very specific functions of MSOffice in my work which do not work in Libre Office (there are still issues with change tracking and some complex PowerPoint presentations do not work well after being saved in LibreOffice. On my laptops I run Linux Lite, and once these functions will work well on LibreOffice I will move my main computer to it as well. I have also installed Linux Lite on the computers of several family members and friends and they are very pleased with it.
