Ah. You haven't used Windows for some time, then?


No, I went linux several years ago.


Perhaps that needs lots and lots of apps that don't come as part of the

No, everything for general use is preinstalled. It's a great way to
avoid badly behaving apps.


I don't have any 'badly behaved' apps on Windows.

And I certainly don't believe linux is perfect. No matter how many on here
think it is.
