I recently installed Mabox Linux on my aging Dell laptop (Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, Intel GMA GPU), and I must say it's a game-changer. Unlike other distributions I've tried, Mabox Linux works flawlessly on this old machine, providing a smooth and responsive experience. The performance is impressive, making it suitable for various basic tasks like coding, internet browsing, and even running some old Windows games using Wine.

One standout feature is the user-friendliness of Mabox. The developers have done an excellent job of optimizing the distro for ease of use. The interface, based on the Openbox window manager, is clean and intuitive. Customizing the system to my liking was a breeze, requiring just a few clicks to personalize the desktop environment.

The only issue i encountered was bluetooth didn't work out of the box on my laptop. However, this issue was easily resolved by installing some missing packages.

Overall, Mabox is a reliable choice for breathing new life into older hardware. It handles everyday tasks with ease and provides a platform for learning and experimentation. If you're looking for a Linux distribution that combines performance, user-friendliness, and customization options, Mabox Linux is definitely worth considering for your aging devices.

After experimenting with may other DMs, decided OpenBox was for me. Looking at the various distros which had an OB variant, Mabox is the most advanced and capable, yet is easy-to-use. Like other reviews, it is fast, lightweight, and totally customizable. Have hammered vanilla installs into DAW workstations, programming, and electronics engineering disciplines. Even have one system using a 32-core processor and 64GB of RAM (now that's fast!) The forum is nice and I couldn't be happier. Thanks Mabox team!

One of the most advanced distros. Very fast even on old hardware. Yes, openbox is different. But if you are open to try this distro you will see, that this is one of the best way to use Linux on a daily base. I use Mabox since moth and I am totally satisfied. The possibility to configure this distro is amazing. There are so many option to make Mabox look like according your preferences. I use gruvbox as my preferred theme and it was one click to transform the whole distro in this visual style. This distro is also very stable. I have never had any problems with the rolling release of this distro.

Give Mabox a try - it's worth.
