thats too far

I would respectfully disagree -- I really don't want to `dist-upgrade` $BETTER_HALF's laptop any time soon...

There is an advantage to having multiple machines, either real or virtual. One can have trusty old reliable and also have Testing to experiment with.

Use Arch - or windows10 - It's made for people like you that want the latest and greatest.

Xfce 4.12? That was backported to Jessie and even Wheezy for MX Linux quite a while ago. It runs great.

i like very much Ubuntu an Antergos or Manjaro, but i dont get use to other thing than debian packages, i get lose with pacman or yaour, they do many things i dont get the control.

I find very easy to use apt-get,synaptic and dpkg so this the main reason i dont move to other distro.


By the way Antergos looks and works pretty cool
