It’s been over a year since I decided to install Exe GNU/Linux onto my aging T61 Lenovo laptop. So, how has been Exe performing for me in all that time? Well, I’m still using and enjoying it, so it’s been a going great!
Early this summer, I’ve migrated over from my T61 to one of our Acer Aspire One netbooks, taking Exe along with me. I’m very pleased with how it performs on the Aspire One, even better than Q4OS has done. The TDE desktop environment is well suited to the netbook and is very responsive, even with the somewhat limited resources available.
This year I’ve also test driven the Centaurus release of Q4OS and Zorin 15.3 Lite and although they’ve performed quite well, they didn’t seem to run as fast nor have the flexibility that I have with Exe. Even though Exe took just little bit more effort to get everything configured “out of the box” than the other operating systems, I found it to be better in the end and well worth the time.
