Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or TheBuddha.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

LOL I'm not even remotely a zealot.

I use Linux because it works for me. I don't give a fuck what you use for an OS, though I think folks should make an informed choice and use what works best for them.

And, Linux can be faster than Windows - it isn't always. Cinnamon is a pretty heavy desktop environment so it'd probably be a little faster. Xfce and LXDE would be even faster still.

Just the size of the program files was like a third less than windows so I figured that alone would make it faster

It depends, really. As a general rule, it's safe to say that an unoptimized Linux is faster than an unoptimized Windows.

There are possible configurations that make that statement not true.

Yeah I am sure there are exceptions. I just assume a leaner app will run faster generally
