I’ve tried going all linux. The computer I am typing on now is the latest Ubuntu...

The big problem that I am having so far as that people send me powerpoints that don’t open properly. Unfortunetly, that means I have to get on one of my XP computers sometimes.

I use Ubuntu myself. I've been able to at least get the images to work in powerpoint.I've found with Linux some hacker somewhere has solved the problem most of the time.


The best way to think of Linux is like owning a car. Most people just want it to run, some like to open up the hood and tinker with things. While it has become much easier to use Linux nowadays it still is mostly for the those who like computers just because it is a computer.
