Actually I find my Windows 7 faster than my OpenSUSE (KDE). Gnome is slow whore and I don't like XFCE. Maybe GNOME 2 form MATE (running it on my tablet with Tegra2 processor), but it's a hassle to setup.

My laptop takes about 30 seconds to turn on with Fedora 19 Gnome 3, about 5 seconds to shutdown.

All these unreliable and slow desktop operating systems.
iOS is the future.

nuUbuntu is good. If you old laptop worked on Windows it can work on any recent linux distribution ;D
So why not taking the v12?
