I tried that 4-5 years ago but it was crap back then.

You should give it a try you bigot!
It was unusable a few years ago... it is truly excellent now.
Stuck it on my PC, it detected all the peripherals (including my NAS and network printer) and is FAST!

Did you know… they used to ship it out to you for free on a CD!
They must’ve been desperate to make it popular... that’s how I got mine!
Yeah, maybe I should give it another go... only thing I have to assemble yet another box for it!

Thats the problem with Linux or anything other than Windows. There is always something that you will need and will not run on them! Hopefully this will change soon. Free OS sounds good!
