Hi all
#1
Hi, ditched windows three years ago after savage windows 10 upgrade and never looked back.  I am no computer wiz but do have higher than average computer skills. 

Have been Distro hopping allot on my junk system, really like Deepin, Debian, Lubuntu, Peppermint, Parrot, Shark, Puppy and Xubuntu to name a few.  Mint been my go-to Distro and favourite and still the OS on my wife's laptop. Still have Mint Xfce 19 as my main OS on my mucking about junk system.

Made the change to Lite few weeks ago on my old workstation which is my main computer.  Quite impress with Lite, so far zero issues, everything gone textbook.  To take my main system away from Mint as the OS ..... well so far Lite been the only one that has done it, can not afford to muck about on my main system as I run my Business on it.

Look forward to reading posts and maybe I might be able to help with issues.

Phil

Hi [member=7976]Phillip Smith[/member] ,

You hopped to the right distro now! The word 'Lite' does not mean that this Linux distribution lacks some features. If you can't
- for some strange reason - find the software package you are looking for from the LL repositories, there are all the Ubuntu & Debian
software repositories to search for - not to mention all the source code in the world.

I've been using SuSE Linux 21 years and I find LL better!
Just customize your desktop, since you are running possibly the Best Distro out there!

And welcome to the site Smile

Welcome Phillip - you made a good choice 8)
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
