Unsere Meinung / What we say
In general, the system is not enough for today when it comes to design, usability and functions. It’s very reminiscent of an old Windows system – if you like it, you’re in good hands here. However, newcomers should only use Mint if they are looking for a sporadic Windows replacement.
Usability
| Usability: 50% |
The system is not difficult to use, but partly old-fashioned. If you are familiar with Windows XP, you will also get along here. But the modern user misses comfort functions in vain.
