Linux Mint 19 Mate - Stable, Fast, and Sleek Looking

I started 10 years ago using Ubuntu which had the old Mate style menu structure. Linux has come a long way since then. And it has been a long while since I have tried a Mate desktop version of Linux. I used to be a fan of Ubuntu Mate, however, the themes left me wanting for more. With Linux Mint Mate 19, this is not an issue. There are also lots of other improvements including the new Software Manager. Along with software arranged by category, the Mint developers have shown details and screen shots of the program. This may be just a carryover from the Gnome Software Manager ported to Mate, XFCE, and Cinnamon versions in version 19. It looks great, uses little memory (1GB), and has updated applications. I have become nostalgic all over again using Mint Mate 19 !
