If you want to run a GUI, it requires an Intel graphics card. This
means most people won't be able to run it as their desktop, because
everyone who cares about graphics went for AMD or nVidia. I also have
no idea whether it'd run properly on an AMD CPU, or whether KDE is
available. My reaction to running GNOME is "Gnope!" I may try their
live CD on the laptop at some point, but that laptop is not set up for
UEFI, so installing it will be impossible.

The long rows of benchmark results make me think, "There are five
species of mendacity, each worse than the last: Lies, damned lies,
statistics, benchmarks, and vendor promises."
