I had been using QUBE's on a Lenovo X230, which in my opinion has a TouchPad that is difficult, and a keyboard that is not very pleasant.  That one does not like an external wired mouse.  Keeps disconnecting mouse. 

I just put QUBE's on a 2016 Alienware 15 R2, which has a Core I7 Skylake Processor and 16 GB RAM with an M2 SSD.  

So much nicer with a more easy to use TouchPad and Keyboard.  Not to mention faster.  

Problem is of course, this is only 70 percent of secure.  I do not have hardware with free drivers, and some other things like that.  But it is smooth.

I wanted to say to those who are trying out QUBE's, the hardware one uses really changes the experience.   So don't give up.  I also hope that soon we will have tenth generation processors with hardware that has free drivers.
