"Bailiff! Whack their pee-pees!"

Seriously though, everyone who liked Windows 7 should find Linux Mint nearly indistinguishable, and quickly learn that many steps Windows requires for tasks have been reduced or vastly simplified by the legion of Linux users over the past few years.

Plus anyone can try it out risk-free by running it off any average USB stick without having to install it. Winning!

Or do a dual boot. My sister would trash laptops with viruses and malware and give them to me. I would wipe them and install Linux, usually Mint. I would use them to play music over the stereo.

Well, I run my main computer on Linux Mint, and created my personal server on a laptop using Fedora KDE.
