I had a great time yesterday getting my new computer up and running on Xubuntu. It is amazing how little the look and feel changed be 15.10 and 16.04 LTS. It all just seems very solid. After all these years hearing Linux was finally ready for the desktop when it really was behind the curve, for me that is no longer true. Part of that might be that in all my trying to get stuff to work, I have learned enough to make it do what I want, but whatever it is, I am very comfortable with this newest version of Xubuntu and am thankful to be off of Windows (and especially Apple). It is nice to be able to exercise the kind of control over your environment you want as opposed to what Windows and Apple demand.
