I can no longer activate Windows XP on my desktop computer, even using the various go-arounds offered on the net. I can afford Windows 10 and so on, but I have given too many hours over the years to its Regedit, restore yada features. I do not need bells and whistles. I need a decent word processor, spreadsheet, pdf viewer. I have a small Chromebook as my second computer. For anything serious, I can use my little Chromebook or go to the public library.


Try any Linux or BSD distrobution. You only know Windows cuz all yer
friends/associates can give you advice on that particular OS almost
instantly. You were NOT born with an inate knowledge of Windows. You
jes think you were. Immerse yerself into Linux. It's the only way.
