Re: Is that weird or what?
I'm not a gamer, I don't run any essential Windows-only apps, and I've been pretty satisfied with LibreOffice for three or four years. I ran PCLinuxOS for a year, eleven years ago, on a laptop that wouldn't run Windows XP stably. OpenOffice was a noticeable step down from MS Office back then, but otherwise I was as productive as I was on XP. (The downside was that I learned next to nothing about the nuts and bolts of Linux ... because I never had to.) Not long after Windows 10 was released, I began trialing various distros of Linux with various desktop environments in VirtualBox. (Linux Mint Cinnamon is the front-runner so far, but that could be in part because it's been the least hassle to get and keep running perfectly in VirtualBox.) Long story short, it's extremely likely that I'm switching to a bare-metal install of Linux by the time Windows 7 reaches end of life.
