by lukakatoma from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XZQV)
i'm used to win7 but it's time for new os due to win7 eol.
i've decided to switch to linux.
- i use dell latitude e6440; cpu: intel core i7/2.9ghz; ram: 16gb;
- i don't play computer games. i mostly work on my laptop (libreoffice), i also need youtube for my job.
i need a functional, reliable and stable system. compatible with canon lb 2900 printer. nothing sophisticated.
i've researched a bit. i can't go too far at the beginning cause i'm kinda ignorant.i'm considering mint cinnamon or mate, ubuntu mate (i've heard youtube videos don't work in ubuntu (perhaps, it's exaggerated), and opensuse.
any suggestions
