Most of the software I use (And that’s a lot) runs on Windows. I use Office 365, Sonar recording studio software, Cubase (same) and a couple of games. I tried Ubuntu about five years ago and decided I just wanted to use my computer as a comodity. It works and I don’t need to tinker with it.

I still see Linux as for computer hobbyists or folks who run servers, etc. For the average computer user - who uses their computer as a simple tool to do their job, Linux is not practical.

And I’ve been in IT since 1983 and build my own computers.

I build my own too. Not often the cheapest route but I get a lot better computer for the money and it beats the crap out of those Dell and HP computers any day.
