I think in this instance it is better to undersell than to not deliver on one's promises.

It's a fair, conservative description when compared against antiX and I guess most distros using purely Window Managers.
Desktop: Intel i5-4460, 16GB RAM, Intel integrated graphics
Clevo N130WU-based Ultrabook: Intel i7-8550U (Kaby Lake R), 16GB RAM, Intel integrated graphics (UEFI)
ASUS X42D laptop: AMD Phenom II, 6GB RAM, Mobility Radeon HD 5400

MX works well on my old Desktop PC and on my newer laptop as well. I went to a Duel boot with MX and Linux Mint on my desktop but I mainly use MX. I completely went with MX on both my Laptops. This distro has been solid and stable so far. Just curious to know have you tried other Distros before MX?
Yes. I tried Kubuntu, Solus, Manjaro and Fedora. MX is a perfect blend of everything I wanted from a distro.
