Review on πŸ’» Enhance your Linux Skills with Linux Mint Cinnamon 19 Bootable 8GB USB Flash Drive - Comprehensive Boot Repair and Install Guide Included by Steve Campbell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

After the "life " of Microsoft Windows. I LOVE LINUX MINT!

Great product. He does what he says, no problem. I tried it out on my old Toshiba Satellite which I quadrupled the original RAM plus a new Crucial 500GB SSD. That made it a fast little laptop. I originally made these updates for Windows 7 and am actually happy with them. However, Microsoft decided to end support for Windows 7 in January 2020, and the graphics required for Windows 10 meant this old machine wouldn't work. It's ok, I have a new one too. However, if I want to keep the old machine, which I also like, it's time to switch to Linux. As a longtime Windows user, I chose Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon. Everything is familiar. Who knows. I may end up switching to one of hundreds of other distributions. But so far I like Linux Mint 19! At first I was disappointed to learn I didn't have access to Brave Browser - something I loved - then realized I could get it. All I had to do was type the commands in the terminal. It's very easy. I found it online and followed very simple instructions. I am now using Brave Browser as I write this review. If you want to try Linux Mint 19, this is a great way to do it. If you like it, it's very easy to go ahead and switch. If you don't want to make this switch, you can simply remove the flash drive and return to Windows. No damage, no foul.

Pros
  • High test results for hold and durability
Cons
  • Some flaws
