Howdy my name is fishman/Shane from fishmanloveslinux. I am trying out RebornOS on my Lenovo Thinkpad R61 that has a Intel Core 2 Duo @ 1.80 Ghz, 4 Gb of DDR2 RAM, Intel chipset of Intel GM965.  
Not a great laptop but it works. I paid $65 for it and it is serving my purpose. I am thrilled to be a part of this community. I hope to be of service if possible.

I am sorry to say that my experience has not been very positive. I am not giving up though. I call these growing pains and I am sure things will get sorted out soon. Thank you for asking.

Welcome to the forum neighbor! I am from Louisiana, am fairly new to RebornOS myself and am really liking it compared to the majority of distros I have tried in the past.
