Watched this too, might just be the ticket for me. He also said he shouldn’t have to much problem getting them. It’s new and it’s made for what we need hardware wise as far as I can tell and it’s affordable too. Think I’ll give it a shot.

:+1: Please do post your experience with it. I’m also considering purchasing it once I’m done setting up my desktop environment.

Yes, will do @Midline One reason I was going this way, I just got my Mac reset up after trying a couple other distros. I inquired about doing a phone with a Linux set up and was told they recommend Manjaro, dang, that’s not the one I am using. So this happened to come up at the same time. So that’s where I am heading and as someone who watches his videos, I trust him. Don’t think that’s misplaced :crossed_fingers:
