that’s one of the reasons i think Lenovo has won the laptop war, they include all operating systems and make it very easy to install any on your device, i love Ubuntu a lot, and chromeOS too

    I tend to like Debian-based. It’s just more familiar for me. Ubuntu has been nice because it seems to add in a few of the quality of life defaults I’d have done manually in Debian (things like aliases in bash, sudoers memberships, 3rd party repos, etc). Easily done in Debian, but slows down initial setup…

    I ran CentOS for a while, but I feel life’s too short to learn yet another package management system! (not that is hard, I just have finite brain cells…) 🙂

      I hear you about finite brain cells. I had a group of international students several year ago who ran Zorin on their laptops. As the tech coordinator for our academic department, I tried to learn enough to help them out. But it was apparently the first thing I flushed after they left. :)
