Giving Lite a spin in V-Box, I haven't used XFCE in a few years at least.

While reading all the comments about the new Zorin16 Lite, I thought I'd try it out for myself. I do use the XFCE desktop, but this with MXLinux on a pc with lower specifications, and just installed it but never took the time to tweak it.

Today I took some time to see what the ups and down are while installing and using Zorin Lite/XFCE 16.

I' m normally am a Gnome fan and have a great running edition of Zorin16Core which I tweaked to my liking. Removed some and installed all other apps which I like to work with. Thought I should try to do the same with Zorin Lite, to see if it really is complicated and if the system would deny me doing what I usually do on the Gnome version.
Normally I use dual boot Zorin16 Gnome and Windows. But I also added the Zorin16 Lite to my 1TB nvme (have enough space).

Must say installation was easy took. It took me perhaps 5 min and all the apps I'm used to went ok while installing; Virtualbox, dolphin filemanager, multisystem, yacreader, foliate, mocplayer, glava, xwinwrap, ark, kwrite, conkymanager2, dreamchess, vlc, mpv, kazam and Wine - even played the game I spend lots of time with on Gnome (Desperados 3)

BTW all the hardware are functioning out of the Box. I can easily use the sound and display options and also use all of my bluetooth devices and headset. The Logitech keyboard and MX M2s mouse works fine.

Second screen show me using some heavy apps while using Wine and playing the Game and running a live wallpaper. This all caused my CPU just a 14% load and the temp is just normal too.

Must say I enjoyed it but I guess my PC liked it more.

Forget to mention that also the PS4 controller was recognized even though in the game as a XBOX 360 controller, but it worked perfect.

I installed it on 10 years old Acer Aspire and I experienced absolutely no issue. For me nothing is broken.

Zorin Lite just released. Games are fixed patch after released also windows. With some computers can working without problems another yes. Everything need a time to working a perfect. I know developers put on parts updates. Why? Because it need a time and simple to fix when this is with a chapter like a reading a book.
I find a channel Zorin on Discord if someone want more friends with Zorin Zorin OS Unofficial Server

I mean example popular cyberpunk2077 after released a developer need after repair a game with patches to working properly also windows 11 after released also need many updates to repair operative system. That I mean - not everything working out from the box is perfect.
