My desktop has a removable hard drive tray and I still have a dual-booted Windows XP/7 hard drive. Still going strong. Windows 7 is still my preferred O/S. However, I programmed up a Windows 10 hard drive with the 1607 build..I reprogrammed my laptop this past weekend with W7

But is that enough?:)

Sorry but I cannot use a Linux based product. I'm just not that savy with it and to get into the nuts and bolts of it would take too much time to learn. If someone comes out with a "true" Linux desktop operating system I'll check it out. Until then, I gotta stick with Microsoft.

Those are fighting words in the presence of many Linux-only devotees!

Is that enough? We'll see. I take great care with my internet security and firewall protection.

As for my other comment, I hope it spurs Linux-only devotees to develop a true Linux desktop operating system, not what everyone is doing now in "adapting Linux to the desktop."

Until someone, somewhere, can produce a software product that states, emphatically, that this is Linux made exclusively for the desktop PC, they will never be able to truly crack thru to the desktop market.

So if those are "fighting words," then I hope it produces the right effect.
