Finally back in Linux after so many years! My first recent attempt was waylaid by a locked down bios beyond my ability to bypass, but I’m done! Thank you, to everyone who helped out in my previous post!

Didn’t see this, I went with mate to start for precisely for that reason. It’s a low spec machine, so I first tried out xfce and mate. I just didn’t love the icons, menu, and general theme on xfce, and the performance hit was utterly negligible, so I went with mate. Still no regrets, though I’m having trouble figuring out some connectivity issues.
