I still geek with it, and with virtual box, its easier than ever, but there is just no reason for me to choose it over Windows. I do look forward, however, to this endevour, who knows what they might come up with.
[[I changed over to Linux over a decade ago, a hand built Gentoo system, compiled it myself on several machines, fast and sweet]]
Had i discovered linux at a younger age, when i was more able to explore and learn (like i had to with windows), I would have probably gone with a ‘build it yourself’ distro- but I’m now at an age where I’m too tired to learn a new operating system fro mscratch unfortunately-
[[but truthfully, there is no reason for me to choose it over Windows 10.]]
Meh- windows 10 is a massive spyware now- you can’t even turn off some of the spyware without some additional software, and who knows if they even work? MS just got way too aggressive for my liking- With older versions of windows, you could turn off the more benign spyware stuff, and MS wouldn’t re enable it on you like they do with windows 10 now- plus they no longer allow the user to choose which updates they want- they force it on us now— I just didn’t like the direction they are headed in lately- and I believe they are practically forcing windows 120 on people (and tricking them into downloading and installing it via updates) in as planned later effort to go to a ‘pay per month’ model like Adobe photoshop did- no thanks
