Yes! Me too… I’ve watched series 5 but not 6. They manage the transition to a new DCC guv’ pretty well. Same production values.

I am, however, waiting for time to erode the perceived value of series 6 on DVD…

Great article. Well worth your time.

I’ve been re watching ‘Unforgotten’ on DVD, a British crime drama TV series. Beautifully paced, well written, well acted and engrossing even on the third watch.

To answer your initial question with a personal success story I can recommend a supplier in Spain called Slimbook.

I bought one of their Evo 14 models with Mint installed for a mate and everything worked straight out of the box.

I’m in the UK so delivery was very good but as expected with customs etc. Comms & service from Slimbook were excellent.

The machine is excellent and works flawlessly. Configuration on their site is a doddle. There are a few reviews of their machines around.

(I’ve used Linux on various machines for twenty years - currently a mini PC, an old MacBook and three HP Streams; I’ve installed linux for friends & customers.)

I’ll either buy a Framework or Slimbook next. Hope that helps.

Well worth a read. Interesting, pithy & informative. Thanks.

The Flying Lizards: The Flying Lizards, and Pastel Blues: Nina Simone… DVDs.

The Flying Lizards is wonderful, but
Pastel Blues is just incredible & fantastic & heart rending.
