I’m not an APPLE fan boy. Let’s get that out there first. I’ve dealt with Microsoft since the early eighties. I downloaded and installed Windows 10 tonight and I was sorely disappointed. So much so I couldn’t revert the machine back to 8.1 fast enough. My boot time was increased and if I had wanted a Mozilla like browser experience I would have downloaded Firefox. They redesigned the snot out of the browser and I was not about to play hide and seek long enough to familiarize myself with the program.

I’ve never dealt with APPLE machines as the expense was prohibitive until now. I’ve tried to install Linux and three attempts failed from ISO discs.

I’m looking into APPLE from here on out. I’m done with MS!

Oh, nice! Now, after removing W 10 I can nol onger enter into Private Browsing with a right click on the IE icon! I wonder what else doesn’t work since the reversion? It looks like a rebuild from scratch is going to take up the day tomorrow. Plus downloading a pile of updates for the last year!

I’m so sick of these &@#J))HV T#())! MS? Go to h3ll!

You can always look to buy a used iMac, or if you have a good keyboard, monitor, and mouse a Mac Mini works fine.

I have 2 Minis myself, and just love them.

I’ve tried to install Linux and three attempts failed from ISO discs.

Which Linux Distro on what box with what specs. I've never been able to make an install fail.
