Armbian for the Pinebook Pro [WIP]
#20
Hi All

I'm moved to write my first post anywhere on the forum since receiving my PBP. Why? Because after trying the other linux OS's I've settled on Armbian + XFCE desktop and I simply CANNOT BELIEVE how well everything works!!

UX is as good as any laptop I've owned - right down to creamy smooth scrolling of any web pages I visit.

I was pretty fond of the XFCE desktop already, coming from using Xubuntu for the last 10 years.

Everybody who's ever worked on ALL the technology that's come together right here at my fingertips is amazing and if only there was a way to tell each and every one of them how grateful I am.

Those of you who do see this: Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Being over 50, I seriously don't imagine I'll buy another laptop in my lifetime - this one is my forever machine  Big Grin

Cheers
Ali C

PS last hurdle is getting a compatible adaptor to run external HDMI monitor from USB C port, then I'll be using this for my CAD work (using FreeCad)..
