I'm gonna be honest and to the point. I am no fan of Microsoft and I
wont use any version of Windows newer that XP, because I hate bloatware.
However, I would not recommend Linux to my worst enemy. I tried at least
15 different versions (distros) of Linux. It was probably the most
frustrating thing I have ever done, and nothing really worked properly.
Some would not even install. And you wont be using Ms Word or other MS
software under Linux. You are stuck with linux softaware which is
limited and not compatible with the rest of the world.

You could not pay me enough to ever touch Linux again.

If you're using Windows 10, I symphatise with you. Unless you need the
latest features and want to fight with bloat, just install an older
version of Windows, or buy a Macintosh computer.


I'm running windows 10 and don't need any sympathy. It works great, it's the fastest, most stable version yet. And I don't know what alleged bloatwAre you're taking about. If you want to run Word and Excel, it's ideal,I don't see the problem, but to each his own.
