[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 1102492, member: 61091"] duh! mea culpa If I didn't mention it, Zorin did send me link to DL 17.2 Pro iso (paid) but I have not (re)installed Zorin yet and may not. IMO MX is a better linux experience than Zorin which tries to be a windows experience (or perhaps enterprise). openSUSE is on my short list to install next, but I want to get a little more polished running MX first as my linux skills, to the extent I had any in the past, need to be refreshed. A friend, who has been a linux guru since linux was first coded recently advised he's running Ubuntu, he ran his own IT company and recently sold it. Ubuntu website says to install it with VirtualBox, and VB wanted to make changes to my network hardware network adapters, and I was not prepared for that and did not want any unintended consequences, so postponted that, and MX is running in VMware. (IIRC [USER=78686]@SeriousHoax[/USER] said something similar about VMw & VB [U]and[/U] linux Guests -- unless it was not you...) MX is aok here on VMw (fwiw). [/QUOTE]
