1. The installation is user friendly based on Ubuntu.
2. It configures WiFi. In the good old days only Ubuntu did it correctly.
Even Debian got WiFi wrong and looks for a wired connection
Debian had overcome this problem.
This is not true with latest version of Mint Linux. It could not configure the WiFi of my NUC.
It aimlessly llok for the Available WiFi streams but could not detect any of them. I am ditching it and going back to Debian Gnome.
3. It looks for Multimedia proprietary at the beginning but could not configure my NUC.
Gnome do not use proprietary stuff which is it's strength.
4. It had Gparted for partitioning
5. It uses Firefox not Chrome Browser which is time tested.
6. It detects my partition table without errors.
7. It can use Btrfs, xfs, zfs and jfs but no Reiserfs of Knoppix.
Btrfs is one single file system and is fixed to Redhat base. One (I) cannot explore it, so I ditch it at installation.
8. After administration installation one can add user and groups to the pool.
9. Installation is quick.
10. Above all background and foreground are clear and no clutter.
11. It is Cinnamon Desktop but I am going to add Gnome.
12. It's Snappac Software I do not like and very SLOW but going to add Synaptic for my use.
