Thanks for the suggestion, in my younger days I played around with some of the Linux distro’s but I primarily use the new machine for my business and I have a bunch of old windows software that I've managed to get working on the Win 10 machine so I probably won't use it much for surfing the web.

Like I said I got a pretty good deal so I guess have to put up with it and use my Windows XP machine with Firefox to surf..:)

Well, 23 years on a W/98 PC should get you some sort of reward. Quite an upgrade even to XP. I use W/10 Pro since years ago I got an upgrade (for $29.00 at NewEgg with the rebate) from XP to W/8 on the retail channel, which offered a free upgrade to 8.1, and likewise to W/10 pro, and being on the retail meant I could migrate the OS to another (home) build, which I have done twice, thanks be to God. And with the freeware I posted then W/10 is much better for me.
