I don't think I've played with this one yet.

I've got wget running and will toss it up as a VM sometime this weekend. It's unlikely, as I don't want to start a precedent, but I may bang out a review.

So, what should I be looking for when I boot it? What should stand out? What's going to make me say, "Hmm... I like it."?

It has just come to my attention that the download maybe corrupted think it happened when I uploaded it so I am going to re-upload it again later on tonight to see if it is fixed so you won't be able to download for now - humble apologies for that - but I will let you know when it is good - so I have deleted the files for now do not want anyone grabbing a faulty upload that maybe corrupted

Ditto, I'll probably go full install.

You should post a comment here when you do get it sorted. I'll still give it a shot on a VM this weekend.

Yes I will post back - it does take me awhile to get it uploaded I live out in the country only have a 3MB DSL line, there is no cable where I live, so it is about a 6 hour process for me. I usually set it up to upload before I go to bed and let it run and pray nothing happens during that time.

I got the download done OK at good speeds even here in Oz, but I had install problems which I will document and report back.

That was on the Dell rig which has 62 other Linux to share with, but I will try it first on the Toshiba Satellite which has only 4 on it so far as I restructured recently.

I just reinstalled on my Acer Laptop had no issues, but it is the only OS on it. My thoughts are one machine one OS. The most I ever ran was 4 different OS's at any one time and eventually ended up with issues so that's when I decided one OS on one machine. At most a VM also. I also have a Dell e6410 I test on it installed on that as well with no issues.

All - it seems I have an installer issue again with my latest update, so I pulled it again for now until I get time to figure out why it fails, seems like some machines it worked and others it won't run from some reports I have received - sorry for that - and humble apologies, but the USB version seems fine - :(
