Thanks, this is a great machine, as is, which is why I don’t want to change much, at least not yet. I was disappointed I couldn’t change the mouse color though, which was the first thing I tried. Knowing me one weekend when I have time, I’ll make a backup, then load everything I can find and test it, then go back to the backup and install just the things I really want. Right now though I’m just running the basic provided firewall, but turned on Stealth and set allowed incoming to only essential, from the default of allow all. I’ll eventually load some more security filtering and blocking, but that takes resources and time, and right now this thing will boot up completely in about 15 seconds, and shuts off in less than 5, and I’m enjoying that.
