Thanks to all, this forum seems indeed very friendly. Now that I've discovered LL I'll try to install it in other PCs and reccomend it to my friends and other people.
IMHO, what is amazing about LL is:
1 - recognize all the hardware on the fly, all. For example, my laptop has a tricky Broadcom wifi card, that wasn't recognized by Peppermint and Mint (despite long and painful efforts), but LL was quick to load the driver and it works!
2 - Xfce desktop is snappy, and even so, it consumes around 180mb only! (idle) This way even weak/old machines as my poor Pentium IV laptop from 2004 (HP nx9110), can be useful again with a decent performance.
3 - the artwork is very pleasant and professional. No need to customize it: is good out-of-the-box. I added only a conky with conky manager.
4 - for beginners is very friendly and easy. I'm not a beginner (more like a medium skilled linux user) but the easy of use is appreciated anyway, and LL can be reccomended to newcomers to the linux world.
