      I've never understood why they put so much effort into making their own desktop, then make a crappy fall back sort of clone of that desktop, then make some themes for other desktops. Too much weird stuff. If you are using Mint for something other than Cinnamon, why are you using Mint?

      Cause we like the way they make MATE look?

              I heard it was because they had Edge locked down, but who knows.

                                          It's the price point it'll be available for that's exciting. 128 threads was child's play even back in the 90's, I had my hands on a 2000 thread system back then. I have a little inkling you did as well @scottalanmiller.

                                            Isnt this the first with that many threads that natively supports x86 and amd64?
                                            .
                                            Though they are going to use 225W to do this. I wouldnt even need my heater in the winter if i was running BOINC projects.
