Ask HN: What linux distro would you love to have preinstalled in your new PC?
- nononoxd 11y agoTrisquel with lxde works fine for me.
- gravypod 11y agoXUbuntu for me. I just got a ThinkPad for the first time and installed xubuntu on it. Running super fast with really low battery usage.
- Aeneas42 11y agoFedora with Gnome 3 on a laptop with touch screen.
- citizensixteen 11y agoArch Linux. The install can be time consuming and it would be nice to have it pre-installed.

- therealidiot 11y agoGentoo
- brudgers 11y agoUbuntu because of the general audience suitable support Canonical provides, e.g. AskUbuntu on StackExchange. It's where I've settled and though I use Xmonad, I found Unity an improvement on the older WIMP paradigms...at least once I learned to use it. I'll add that part of the reason for focusing on Ubuntu is that I think it would be hard for a company to build and maintain a critical mass behind most other distributions...and that sort of stability matters to me. Good luck.
