[TriLUG] Distro choice for desktop

[Bill Weinel via TriLUG]

I'll second that... I've run KDE here for going on 20 years now and it's 
still probably my favorite desktop operating system. It has all the 
underlying functionality and stability of Ubuntu and is very 
configurable to your individual tastes. The KDE development team does a 
great job of making sure that the KDE LTS releases are rock solid. For 
the more adventurous users who want to use all the latest KDE software, 
try KDE NEON. I use it on my laptop and for a leading edge O/S, it is 
pretty stable.

Now should you want even more stability, at the minor cost of being a 
bit a little behind the development curve, try Mint with the Cinnamon 
desktop.

As previous posters have mentioned, all of these are available as live 
distros. So it's easy enough to download a copy of each and try it out 
on your machine before committing to one.

Take care,
Bill
