    Tux be good. Here's my long-term usage review and report number 2 of the Slimbook Titan laptop, with Nvidia RTX 3070 graphics and Kubuntu 22.04 LTS as the operating system, covering hardware, resolved problem with suspend & resume, performance, noise, battery life, one-time crash, software compatibility including Windows programs through WINE, Windows games through Steam Proton, Logitech G27 steering wheel set, 3D rendering programs, Samba speed, general positive change in overall usability, some other observations, and more. Do take a look.

    The Jammy Jellyfish and Noble Numbat KDE will be the same because NN isn't shipping with KDE 6.0. :p

    That's not necessarily a bad thing.

    OT:

    Speaking of Windows, have you tried the server version with desktop GUI? It seems to be stripped of bloatware, doesn't have nonsense installation requirements you must hack around and you can run it practically forever, unlike with vanilla Windows.

    Who says you have to run as it as a server or headless? A consideration with the new Windows 11 24H2 with its POPCNT requirement.

    I left Windows for good some years ago, but thanks for the info. :)
