After the tutorial of Install Fedora 27 MATE Compiz Desktop and this tutorial is mainly to see what to expect from a freshly installed Fedora 27 MATE Compiz – the look and feel of the MATE GUI – https://lxde.org/
The idea of this tutorial is just to see what to expect from Fedora 27 MATE Compiz – the look and feel of the GUI, the default installed programs and their look and how to do some basic steps with them, it is included also screenshots of the MATE and Compiz settings programs. Here you’ll find more than 100 screenshots and not so many text we do not want to turn this review of many text and version information and 3 meaningless screenshot, which you cannot see anything for the user interface, which these days is the primary goal of a Desktop system. You can expect more of this kind reviews in the future…
Fedora 27 MATE Compiz is really fast. MATE is the choice of people, which like the old and excellent GNOME 2 desktop environment, because the aim of the MATE is the continuation of GNOME 2. In combinations with Compiz you could have a modern 3D Experience and still be light to use on an old hardware. Compiz could be enabled and disabled in the settings so MATE could be used in really old hardware if you need a light, fast and more mature than LXDE (Review of freshly installed Fedora 27 LXDE Desktop) GUI.

Install Fedora 27 MATE Compiz Desktop
This tutorial will show you the simple steps of installing a modern Linux Distribution like Fedora 27 MATE Compiz for the user graphical interface. The MATE Desktop Environment is the continuation of GNOME 2 and this GUI is for those who do not like Gnome 3 and where it is heading on. This GUI also is good for using with older hardware, but with Compiz could offer a modern 3D experience and effects. First we present the basic steps for installing the Operating system in addition to your present operating systems (here we have two: Windows 10 and Ubuntu 17) and then you can see some screenshots of the installed system and the look and feel of it. We have another tutorials showing more screenshots of the installed and working Fedora 27 MATE Compiz (Gnome and KDE plasma) – so you can decide which of them to try first – coming soon.
