O no, what's gonna happen to gNewSense?

  If enough people care, it will evolve and survive. If not... another distribution will take its place. Darwinian evolution in Free Software.

    I've not seen gNewSense being advocated in a while, but I have seen Trisquel being promoted (e.g. it came preinstalled on my laptop) https://trisquel.info/ https://trisquel.info/

      Yeah, same here. I have a thinkpenguin laptop. Trisquel is based on Ubuntu (Trisquel 7.0 == Ubuntu 14.04) - I use it and it works well.

        How do you feel about thinkpenguin? Specifically the build quality and hardware features (USB ports; display ports; touch pad quality; etc). I'm potentially on the market for a new laptop, and Lenovo's behavior recently has me considering other options. I will sorely miss the track point, though.

          Not even Lenovo's behavior -- their build quickly has tanked. My 13mo laptop's hinge is cracked and bowing.

            What model line is your laptop in? Last I heard their business lines (Thinkpad) are much better than their consumer lines. My 2007 Thinkpad is still going strong.

              ThinkPad Edge E545.
