Wild strawberries (Fragaria vesca). Incredibly fragrant and sweet. Regular strawberryies can't compare.

Thanks, I've ordered ssd and I'm trying opensuse now. Puppy linux sounds great for persistent usb set up. I'll definitely try it.

Thanks, I have installed tumbleweed today and I like it. It is much faster too. I'm unsure about learning two different sets of commands just when I'm switching. I guess I have time to decide until my ssd arrives.

Well, I've ordered ssd and installed openSuse tumbleweed. I like it and it's much snappier too, but the command line is different to ubuntu and I don't think i want to learn two sets of commands. I guess I'll have to decide which way I want to go.

I misremembered the specs it's actually i7-2630m, which indicates that I thought I got the laptop later than I thought. I've ordered a ssd so hopefully that will improve the speed.

I've ordered an ssd so hopefully that will do the trick. Meanwhile I installed openSuse and it improved the speed significantly.

My apologies, it's only 4gb ram and I did overestimated the age as well. It's i7-2630m processor, video is nvidia gt 540m.

Based on another commenter's advice I installed openSuse tumbleweed and it is quite snappy and I like it, but I've noticed that working terminal is different and since I'm transitioning from Windows and learning Linux I don't want to learn two sets of commands. Decisions, decisions...

You've convinced me. I've just ordered ssd. We'll see how it goes.

Don't worry about what people think about you. They're too worried about what you think about them.

I find 4 hours a day ideal (if I have to work at all) and 6 hours optimal.

I was flirting with Linux for 20 years. There was always something that put me off an I went back to Windows. Recently I installed ubuntu with Kde plasma and I'm not going back. It just works and is heaps faster on older hardware. The old driver issues are gone, compatibility is awesome. The only issue is getting used to new software names.
