Tuxedo OS vs DELL vs Endless OS

Endless OS

There is a nice guy in America who dish out Gnome OS FREE and if YOU register under him with his KEY, YOU get ton of applications.

I have very old laptop (2009) and it has Endless OS in it.

It has DDR3 and is very slow.

After I got two NUC (mini computer) computers with 8GB RAM,  I never looked back.

It has 5 operating systems.

1. Two of Debian, 13 Trixie, the latest.

2. Manjaro on a single partition. 

3. Most beautiful BlueStar Linux

4. Cachy OS, top of the www.distrowatch.com 

5. I did try AVL MXe ( Liquorix Kernel - bookworm based) multimedia distribution for a while. I hope it comes out with the Trixie Kernel version.

 Less I talk about Pop OS and Cosmic Dedktop, better for my heslth.

Tuxedo OS does not fit the bill of a Linux distribution.

It is only a bloated up KDE Desktop.

Desktops and Window Managers are chicken play for a Linux guy or girl. 

It is based on Ubuntu and no Synaptic Package Manager. 

It has Discover but no applications to download.

This is a commercial distribution tailored for a commercial equipment.

Do not get caught, YOU are caught for both for the computer and the software.

Name Tuxedo that comes Tux is a gross miscalculation of Free Software Foundation.

Yes, there are stupid  guys who get caught up by commercial propaganda.

One can assemble two or three computers for the price of one, if one knows about computer hardware and there assembly.

When I was in UK, a Young Guy started assembling computers in his garage (I did it after returning to Ceylon, in mid 1980s), since the gadgets were expensive then.

He became a multimillionaire and sold his company
