Re: W10 not all bad

Yes apart from AV Linux everyone of the distro's I have tried including and especially Mint have been so easy and quick to install, with I might add no need for the ATI driver disc as I do in Windows to get the graphics card to work properly.

I suppose we all have to do a little learning with regards to whatever OS we use, I have on occasion felt like an M$ employee however due to the amount of time spent keeping everything running A OK!

Like you say the OS should stay out of the way as much as possible and just let you get on with whatever.

As an informed amateur I am generally tasked to fix a family or friends machine and I’m frequently frustrated by device driver errors on co processors and adapter drivers essential to the machine working properly.

I have never had these sorts of problems with Linux, it all gets detected and works first time around, no searching for missing drivers (code28)!
