I wasted over an hour downloading this trial on my

I have decided I do not now want it, but it doesn't tell
me how to revert to the original XP !
Anyone know how ?

before you do, try linux mint. It makes windows look pointless.

Mint doesn't work very well on my touch screen tablet.
I don't think the multi touch screen or digitiser work well under any
linux system.


i guess that's why android - the most popular os for mobile devices - is
linux, then?


Android is an OS that uses the linux kernel the same as mint is an OS that
uses the linux kernel.
Android is *not* linux in the sense most people refer to mint, ubuntu etc.


Oh yes it is!
