I've been a PC user since the 5150, and PCDOS 1.0. Been a Windows guy most of the time. I spent 20 years in corporate IT. I dabbled in Ubuntu/Linux Mint for a while around the time Windows Vista came out. After Win 8/10 it was finally time to bail on Windows. I've DL'd and tried most of the popular distros and now I think I've found the best one for me - Lite 2.8. Thanks to Jerry and everyone who contributed to such a great OS.

Welcome,
You made a very good choice.
Great forum, with active devs/mods, it's what sold me on LL :)
I noticed in another post you have a NUCi5, great little box, just done a build for a friend on a NUCi7
Few little issues, he wanted Triple boot, LL, Linux Mint & Win7(needed to jump through hoops for that on the M.2 drive)
Amazing little beast, LL Kernel boot in @ 4secs, and desktop @5sec
