After a lot of frustration I have finally got annoyed enough to dump windows 10 on my laptop in favour of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
Bit frustrating to start with given I'm a RHEL type person but now I have everything working.
Just over 1GB memory usage idle and no more annoying situations where I can't use my PC for long periods because it wants to do whatever on startup or shutdown. I'd recommend it to anyone who values their productivity. Also no more dependency on VMWare for me now given native virtualisation is a thing.
Install a nice theme and you'll forget it's Linux
