Linux is excellent. I’m not running it but may in the future depending on what MSFT does.

Linux is free. There are several distributions and each has its good and bad points.

Try sending a FReepmail to Shadow Ace with questions about Linux. He, apparently, is a Linux guru.

Several? More like dozens and that is a big negative for Linux. I have yet to see any good descriptions. They all seem to be 'try it; you might like it'. I did several versions of Linux about 10 years ago. None was that great and none recognized all of my peripherals. Trying to figure out which distro version and which desktop -- there are not enough hours in the month.
