It finally happened after finding a great deal on a used 6 year old laptop with great specs and in really great condition. Picked it up only to find that not only did they upgrade it to W10, they wiped the factory restore partition preventing me from going back to W7. REALLY REALLY dislike W10, and seeing the writing on the wall that end of support for W7 is coming rapidly, decided to wipe it and go full blown Linux. Now I've been doing unix since long before linux was even conceived, so I'm not really working with any new skillsets. Played around with many flavors/distributions of linux over the years as well. Plenty of linux based appliances and Raspberry Pi builds as well. But for various reasons, this is really the first time I have really considered using it as my everyday OS for my primary system. After two weeks, I have absolutely NO regrets. I'm running the very latest version of Ubuntu 17.10. Installation was so incredibly fast and simple compared to all the hoops it used to take to set up linux. All my Chrome apps work (betaflight, cleanflight, KISSgui, MWOSD, BLHeli,etc...), my 3D printing software all works, and there are plenty of other tools to suit my needs as well. Also is a perfect development environment for my favorite FC firmware dRonin. So there it is. Stick a fork in Wx... it's done!
