No doubt about it. Most editors have the same capabilities or better. It’s just when you use something for 40+ hours a week you know it inside and out.

Notepad++ is the one thing i really miss on linux. I use it daily for work and i just haven’t found an equivalent on linux.

Rant: I hate these fucking machines. Cvs installed them near me for their pharmacy. But of course you have to use the on-screen keyboard to type in your name and birthdate. Nobody in line. The machines are so frustrating to use. At least provide a keyboard.

My understanding is you need to export per folder if you want to keep things organized.

How much runtime do you get out of the battery? Mine still has the original, runs about 1 - 1.5hrs.

Yup, i have a mid 2012 mbp with linux mint xfce and it runs great. My biggest complaint is the hardware support. Had to add a usb wifi dongle because broadcom chip was constantly dropping and the sleep wake takes forever and sometimes it wont sleep. But otherwise runs like a champ. I do kinda wish it would die so i could get a laptop without the sleep/wake issues.

Those things got pretty hot if i remember correctly. Does it have any ventilation?
