I seem to pick very good distros that go away. Freespire >> MEPIS >> Netrunner (original) >> Maui.
I need to be more careful and think big; Maybe Manjaro KDE.

Unfortunately Manjaro KDE is nowhere near as stable and problem-free as Maui. I went through the list of all KDE distros recently and could not really pin an alternative distro to Maui when it comes to "problemfreeness"... non-DEB distros are problematic, because external software companies that do provide linux software don't provide Manjaro/Arch packages, so your only choice is to wait until someone from the maintainers has mercy and creates a package for it (or you can compile it yourself - I'm curious what would my wife tell me if I told her to compile it herself ). RPM distros are very power-user oriented (Fedora KDE, Opensuse and similar). So the only choice are DEB distros, but again, Mint KDE is stopped (from my perspective the only viable alternative) and the others are again more problem-prone than Maui was. So really sad if it goes away...
