Thanks, great to find another Linux user.

What's the current one you're using now?

Your Welcome!

I am still deciding. I have been using opensuse for about 6 to 7 months (my favorite distro), but when I got a new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed, I had to find an os that likes UEFI, so I chose ubuntu for now. I did look at my previous review on rosa desktop fresh lxde that I did and I think I will see if that works well with my laptop and if it does, then I will probably dualboot with it. Even though I like Opensuse a lot, I feel like trying something different. Dualbooting was always easy until I got this laptop about a week ago. My bad for this long explanation on such a easy question you asked me.lol

What are you using?

Let me recommend Manjaro Xfce. It consumes almost as little as a Lxde distro, but it's very reliable, fast and customizable. And with a great community behind. Ah! and it is rolling released

A great distro, but with only 9 months of maintenance

Kind regards, penguins friends

I did a review on manjaro xfce 0.8.10 and it did seem like a great distro. About two years ago or so, I use to use openbox edition of manjaro and it was the best openbox distro out there.

Manjaro is great, but not compatible with secureboot, which is why i recommended him to try MATE 14.10
It is only supported for 9 months, but like most of us Linux users, he probably will change distro's in that amount of time anyway.
