Very happy with Linux Mint (version 18). I run it on laptop with Windows 10.
Will Linux Mint still run off the cd drive without a hard drive installed? I see all new versiona are approaching 2 gigs in size so I am assuming you need to burn DVDs in order to install? Surprising there in no install FAQ or info which to me is the big reason Linux will never be mainstream, as it seems they purposely keep things vague.
Yep. I’m using Mint (17) 99.8% of the time now. The only time I boot windows anymore it to run photoshop. Gimp is just too unwieldy for my taste. Other than that, it does everything I need.
