Got my new gear -- HP Omen 15 2020. Switched to windows after 6 years.
And boy, isn't WSL (Win subsystem for Linux) a GREAT thing.

FYI, I was previously using 1st gen Pentium with 3GB of RAM runnig Linux Mint. You can understand how I feel. 😀😀

Yes. WSL is handy.

Odd numbered amounts of ram just don't sense.

@N00bPancakes it originally came with 1. Then I added extra 2.

Omen? What an odd name

Have you tried mint on this one?

Is your camera on weed ?

Some people just do anything to not become mainstream.
Microsoft switches to Linux -> you switch to Windows...

Specs?

Let us know when you wipe Windows and back to Linux distro!🤣

Great feeling when you just buy it 😊

@asgs @10Dev 10th gen i5/8GB/GTX 1650

@mirimmad I hope it has SSD or a Hybrid version of it

@asgs Nvme 512 GB from samsung.

First gen Pentium? Like from 25 years ago? I don't think they put those into laptops. Also, 3GB of memory would have been far, far beyond the reach of any desktop or laptop at the time.

@bahua Pentium P6100.

Might be a slight upgrade from a 60 MHz processor

So the first and foremost thing you like about Windows is the Linux subsystem. Why not use native Linux and see the system really fly?
This is a genuine question. Why do you need Windows?

Even though WSL2 is a lot better (amongst others because you use better filesystems) you still lose a lot of performance.

@bahua @jespersh
Yeah I think it's one of the relaunched Pentiums

This one did not support any type
of ram produced in gb. I had one of the 66mhz in a IBM Aptiva
