Anyone else remember when they proclaimed that thin clients and other VM-based solutions were the future of PCs? This is them trying to make that vision happen as an added bonus.


I maintain a collection of PCs stretching back to the late 90’s, so I still regularly burn CDs and DVDs of install media for the ones that can’t boot from USB. I should try to get PXE working on my network, but using physical media is fast and convenient for me. I also occasionally burn extra backups to BD-R media.
Given Debian’s longer release cycles, I imagine it’s not nearly as much of a drain as keeping up with Ubuntu. Plus, LMDE keeps them in position to ditch Ubuntu if they become too problematic or burdensome to work with.
