I use Linux Mint Cinnamon, which is very full-featured and turn-key. It is not designed to be stripped down and lightweight; it is designed to be a drop-in replacement for windows. And it still feels like greased lightning in comparison. Windows just feels like a bad product now, even if we ignore the spying and the non-free nature of it.

I’m thinking of upgrading from my Asus e200ha at some point. Want it when I do?
