And people are always coming up with new things you can add to it.

There hasn’t been anything that I want to do for which I couldn’t find an app.

(But again, that’s me, and my small needs.)

“There hasn’t been anything that I want to do for which I couldn’t find an app.”

There are thousands of apps. The big ones MS folks can’t live without are Turbotax, Word, MS 360 and that one MS game they just can’t live without.

Linux has alternatives for all these too, but they are too lazy to take the time to learn to use the alternatives. I have even heard complaints about it doing what they need but they don’t like the default icons, fonts, or colors. To some an icon, font, or color is the hill to die on I guess... lol

All of which can be customized and changed if it is that big of a deal. And with Linux you can without restriction. In fact you can probably get exact copies of the MS parts to do it. Check this out for Mint Cinnamon desktops... There is so much you can do with it if you want. :)
