And if my experience is based on Debian ?, I put all the categories to Debian as the winner, the article is very subjective and therefore invalid.
It seems adequate to me but the distributions of the image from Archlinux to xumbuntu, which in this case would be 16 but it would be missing one that here is not the case a BSD like PCBSD my favorite OpenBSD distribution, FreeBSD- Opensolaris for you to stay no partitions
How hard is PC-BSD hitting! little by little it grows more and more. I love PC-BSD and I hope more people join together to form a really strong and great Hispanic community.
I would like to know what they are based on to place Ubuntu as the best distro for Laptops, if since I released 9.10 none of my laptops has ever done well. Right now the least problematic has been Arch Linux since not even Mint is saved from burning
