Our two cats are named Peter and Paul. We intend on getting a female tabby and naming her Mary.

Your cute puppy looks like a Marissa. I love popular human names for pets!

Debian and Fedora, Debian and Fedora. That is a lot of the recommendations I've gotten.

Thank you for the reply. Many moons ago I tried to spin up a Arch lappy, but failed. I haven't tried since (complaints about no free time and such), but I kinda took that fail that I always wanted to go back and try again!

I have a fondness for Mint. I was able to build a desktop and a laptop with Mint for my parents. They've been using them for years now, at least over 5. It just works for them.

I was mostly using Fedora desktop with CentOS servers many years ago. Though, will soon spin up Fedora again.

I feel like you are being a little snarky, but well given because of my post. I will admit I had to spin up Win 10 to finish up some projects as I have so little free time lately.

Super appreciate the reply, d3Xt3r!

I've been screwed by nVidia cards before. I knew that but still bought the System 76 laptop... I have some decent laptops from previous jobs, I have a pretty beefy ThinkPad P52 that I will spin up Bluefin once I get a little freetime.

Thanks for the in depth response.

I've wanted to like Pop!. I think I tried it too early, being with it for years now. I will take a look again when Cosmic comes out.

First, thanks for reading and commenting.

I would appreciate any\all feedback from all of you, if there are recommendations for a stable, consistent setup - both hardware and OS. Or comments that I am asking for something unrealistic. Either a desktop or a laptop connected to a docking station.

a. I would like to suspend the machine at night and continue working in the morning.
b. To be able to support three monitors. c. VM app to test stuff - virt network to test varied apps\code on different clients and servers. d. Libre Office to create docs and presentations. e. LTS.

Currently using a System 76 laptop w\ Pop OS and a docking station. The first laptop was warrantied to poor construction (keyboard and bezel weren't flush, they separated and you could see the motherboard...) and now the second one is having the same issue - let alone sporadically working with suspend or the docking station (will have to reconnect the docking station, most times rebooting).

I've distro hopped for years, so I would consider myself a beginner\intermediate user. I am more than willing to pay\donate for consistency, and right now that leans towards MS and Windows (sigh).

What are corporate users using? I think that is my standard, as I've worked at places that were primarily windows shops, And it is pretty easy to come in in the morning and resume from yesterday. "RH for workstations" ?

Thank you!!
