MX 18.3 review in Forbes

[uncle mark]

I agree with this part about the "grey" color (in a constructive manner) but especially the background of the left pane: "If I have one complaint, it's simply that the installer itself looks dated. Dull grey color schemes feel like they're from a different era."

I get that criticism, but what is the alternative? A dark theme? Something with bright colors? I'd rather it be easy to read and seem rather 'dull' and do its job :) I don't think the colors are bad though, and it's easy to read and focus on the job at hand.
A very nice review.

Oh, fer cryin' out loud. Who gives a rip about the aesthetics of the installer??? By all rights, you'll use it once.

question from the reviews. when installing mx on the complete hard drive - and nothing else - no windows. there is a pic on the review that shows instal grub for linux and ms - microsoft/windows. and it is checked. if i am only using and installing mx then leave this box unchecked? i have never saw this before on bodhi or debian or older ubuntu and mint a long time ago. so wanted to know so i do not do something wrong. thanks. waiting for 19 stable to come out and jumping in. i cannot wait. thanks.

you still need to install grub if mx is the only system.

i understand - thanks but do you check the linux and ms box or leave it blank.

[dolphin_oracle]

You check the box

ok that is what needed to know. I never saw that before. seriously. Hence the dumb question.

i see people pik wrong stuff on install and then have issues and then have to ask for help to fic what they broke ate setup if you know what i mean.
