Hello

Post by ion »

I'm new to linux and I have to say kudos to the Mint Team for saving me, big time. My laptop died (never had that happen before) and I guess I had an impulse buy and picked up one of those Asus Rog Strix Scar 18 laptops. If it wasn't for the EDGE ISO I'd be sitting on an expensive brick as the vanila Mint install kept failing.

Everything works. I've not had any issues with 21.3 on this beast of a laptop. Games, programs, internet and sound all work. Pretty amazing considering how new the hardware is.

Thx :lol:
