It's number one in my book. MX stop me in my tracks. I'll never distro hop again at least for another primary OS. I still lurk around using my Virtualbox application. But MX will always be my primary OS for now on.

Previous posts did not have a link to the article, which only came to my attention because the article was linked in yesterday's Distrowatch Weekly. But, I love open source developers and forum monitors.

It says in the article:
And the only reason I didn't choose it for my production system is because it's a small distro, with no LTS, and I can't play those odds with serious work. Because otherwise, Horizon is a magnificent system through and through.
I do not think so, MX is not an LTS! is a "semi-rolling" type distribution that is constantly updating its content and third-party software.
No todos ignoramos las mismas cosas. :confused:

I read that review, took a look at it in Virtualbox.
Whoot!
Bye-bye Mint.
