Been outside in a meeting, but it is getting hot out there now.
many miles north, and I concur... just back from the grocery,.... and being outside was like being hit with a steaming hot towel - repeatedly..
so muggy.
finished installed Fedora 28 LXDE - updated, and getting some baseline stuff installed. This one is 64b,.. but the old Netbook needs 32b.
Wow, 32bit hardware still lingering?
Yes- it's any old Netbook.. I keep it because the power is 12v,... so many newer more powerful laptops use 19v,.. so there are conversion losses going from 12vDC to AC to 19vDC or 12vDC-19vDC Upconverter. Not to mention the additional cords and such. I can run this direct.... if I could locate a inexpensive alternative - I would investigate more. But it's a hobby... so not well funded.

LXQt takes advantage of KDE framework.

LXDE was the old, Gnome based desktop. LXQt is the new Qt based one that is replacing it.

Running LXdx on teh Netbook:
-
one thing that is annoying - is that I can't see the text I am typing. Also annoying is the the 'WINDOWS' key doesn't present the start bar -so I can't just start typing the application I want.

The correct word is
Super Key

.Depends on the keyboard and OS.
Most keyboards have the Windows symbol on it... still, for who knows why, but hence the "Windows key".

I'm setting up G Suite for my company. Lots of new features compared to when I last used it (about 9 years ago). I'm curious about their Android MDM.

Google Work is what I've always wanted for BYOD on Android. Having a work container set up on my phone that separates out all the work apps is exactly the way it should be.
