Looks like you even beat DistroWatch

dantheman:
Ya, and i was almost first to post on LM's blog too!
Have been patiently waiting for this version.
Always liked LinuxMint and Clem sure is doing an excellent job!  :Thmbsup:

Not sure if this is an issue but CPU has been hanging around 50C

Otherwise, this distro was a piece of cake to install and it is truly fast!!

Every now and then I try a mint or another with KDE to check out this "Plasma" I keep hearig about.  But so far I haven't found one that shows me anything impressive afa Glass goes.  Mint is ok.  The genius of Windows is you have to keep tweaking it constantly.  It gives us something to do.  :)

dantheman:
As expected, this latest LM distro has its quirks too.
Tweaking Linux distros i find almost endless compared to what you can do with Windows.

What is nice with LinuxMint and Ubuntu is that they work pretty well out of the box, have drivers for most important peripherals and can thus revive old PCs for a few more "miles ahead".  :P
