[QUOTE="excollier, post: 893567, member: 284272"] There are usually Linux alternatives, and what there isn't I don't need. I seriously cannot think of any sensible reason to [I]ever[/I] use [I]any[/I] version of Windows again. It's far too high maintenance ( os updates and consequent re-starts, virus / malware definition updates and scans, de-fragging....etc) Gaming aside (which I have no interest in) I cannot see anything Windows can do (for the average user) that a Linux OS cannot do, and more efficiently. I spend all day fixing virus and malware ridden Windows computers that run slow and have all sorts of issues. It's generally quicker to re-install Windows, in itself a painfully long winded process, than to try to cure all the problems. I hope that Windows remains the #1 OS and that keeps it in the firing line, so gives me plenty of earning potential. If people wish to [I]pay[/I] for a very flawed operating system then so be it, ignorance is bliss.... Anyway sorry for going slightly off topic. [/QUOTE]
