Just saying hello...again!


Greetings all,

Well, some time ago I installed Ubuntu, but then removed it and continued on with Windows. I'm now wanting to go with Mint-MATE and I think I'm going to keep it this time...

So, I'm back, again, saying thanks for the board and I hope to interact frequently in time.

Thanks,

Starkman

I is! And if I recall correctly, we've corresponded before, when I was working with Ubuntu. Good to see you again!

I'm not sure, looking back on your post history, I saw I spoke to you here.

Hello Starkman, I also like mint, but prefer the Cinnamon DE.

Hey, Linus and Offgridguy,

Well, Cinn has some attractive features to it, but I am just so darned plain-joe, you know! When I used to call-support, my cube was, like...well, it was just bland as all get-out, and I liked it that way.
And so, I find that a desktop that is as simply laid out as it gest as it gets is what I like. But I'm sure I'll give Cinn a whirl sometime too.
