If you get Linux and then load the deskop style called Cinnamon, it looks and operates a lot like Windows 7. I have Linux Ubuntu with Cinnamon desktop and Windows 10 loaded on my laptop computer. I’ve been using Linux about 1 year. I’ve used Windows since 1990 and Windows 3.0.

I just recently got a Chromebook, also. Think of a Chromebook as Google Windows. It was only about $150 and boots in about 8 seconds. Chromebook runs a copy of the Chrome browser. You can load all kinds of Chrome browser apps in it. If you only browse the internet and create a few documents, then a Chromebook might be for you. I really like the Chromebook.

Thanks for the helpful info. IF I put Chrome on my tablet, is that the same thing as “Chromebook?”
