Re: Dual Boot Linux Mint 17.3 with Linux Mint 18
Gotta move with the times to keep abreast of things.
Mint 18 looks good, but I don’t think it is a visual massive leap forward, however it is rather different under the bonnet.............
Hell, I'm still just getting my feet wet, after about a year of using Linux as a main OS.
