Lol!
They have awoken!
“Press any key” they cry, their bloodlust welling in their stony little hearts.

I have questions, and I don't mind if no one answers, because it is semi off topic...I have a hp laptop (that's my real problem) from 2008/9--an AMD 64 bit running Precise Pangolin Ubuntu x32.

1. What is a good antivirus/security system?

2. If I buy Mint on a DVD that comes with one of those $18 magazines they sell at the bookstores in the UK and US, Can it install properly without erasing my files? Or should I save the files to another drive (or make another partition for just my files) format the drive, and install the new OS?

3. Or should I just sell the laptop before it becomes worthless?

Hmm.. laptop.. many ways to go about your situation.. BEST, is to pull your HD and put a new one in (saves your old information)..

OK... Just to let you know, you do NOT have to buy NAY Linux OS.. and Anti-virus options are always there.. but I have never had to use one (yet).. (and I have been on computers since 1980.. there are a few here that have been on them before me....)..

When people post issues with Windows the advisory posts from other FReepers are usually something along the following lines:

‘Get a Mac!’ or ‘Get Linux!’ ;-)
