It’s my oldest son’s birthday in a couple days, and he’s been going on and on AND ON for a “proper” computer for years. I think he’s old enough now, so I’m building him a little iTX PC and installing @ubuntumate on it for him.I think he’s gonna love it!

@kev @ubuntumate Nice setup, and I like the MATE choice. It was my DE while I was still using Ubuntu.(today is Fedora/Manjaro, with Cinnamon on both)The mini ITX tower reminds me my previous HTPC build.

@kev How old is your eldest son? Ours also wants a "real" computer, but he is only 7 and will have to wait a while.

@kev +1 for @ubuntumate!MATÉ doesn't get enough credit. He's like #GNOME's calm, non-narcissistic older brother. 😂

@kev Would have recommended Budgie over MATE (not biased), but looks excellent! Hope he comes to love Linux too :D

@serebit I just wanted something performant that I know. I ran Mate for years and it was always rock solid.

@theavidhorizon @RL_Dane @kev @ubuntumate being serious this time, if you please: prefer her to who. I agree she did a good job. But is there anyone else who was in the running to be cast? If you don’t know I’ll look it up later.
