Your video on why LL is better for "absolute beginners who can't even find the on button" was superb - and simply factual.  When I want to share Linux with newbies or "refugees" from Windows, I have two considerations:

First, it has to be "newbie friendly," and

Second, it has to be lightweight, since most of the newcomers have been using WinXP, 7, or 8, and reluctant to toss away a perfectly good computer just to keep the OS current.

Both at the same time?  The old paradigm used to be that having it both ways was not possible, but there would always be this trade-off between them.  One either had a speedy, nimble OS that wasn't "friendly" with GUI tools that added weight and bloat, OR one had a nice "user-friendly" desktop OS that was slow and bloated and cumbersome.

Linux Lite breaks that old paradigm and proves that we can indeed have it both ways.  That's why I've become a Linux Lite fanboy.

It's nice to have you in the forums now to help out!
