Help a future Linux convert out!
So far over the past year I've gone through Mint, Fedora, Ubuntu and REHL and all have had their issues or just didn't agree with me. Currently I've been using OpenSuSE Leap I haven't had much an issue with... But I'm looking to try out Arch, though I'm not a fan of the whole CLI install. Doing some more research I saw Antergos which is just Arch but more n00b friendly and more elegant to me. Has anyone had experience with Antergos? Is it as it seems? Any pros and cons with Arch Linux based things? Running it in a VM first doesn't do it justice for me.

    Archlinux is not a hackers toy, it's a professional's tool. Let's hear from people who use archlinux in production environments. We already know it makes a good custom desktop. I'm running archlinux on a 300mhz laptop with 128mb of ram, and its not an issue.

    Antergos is nice to get an install quickly but I recently had an issue installing it on a laptop, when it created a faulty config for the track pad. It also uses lightdm but I prefer gdm because I use GNOME. Honestly, the normal Arch install is better, at least you know what it does. The only thing I think is not practical on the command line is partitioning, which could be done with a live version of gparted if you want.
