I’ve used Windows since Windows 3 in about 1990. I used Dos before that. I have Windows 10 installed on all my home desktop PC’s and laptops. It works okay. I haven’t had any problems with it. About 6 months ago I tried Linux Mint and I really like that also. I’ve made my PC’s dual boot, Windows 10 and Linux Mint. I’ve found, at least for my home uses, anything I can do in Windows 10 I can do in Linux Mint. Best of all Linux Mint is free and runs all kinds of free software. For some people maybe Linux might be a good alternative.

Makes me wonder why more people aren’t switch to LINUX at all.

It’s not as if the operating system is a recent innovation. It’s been there for nearly 20 years.

I’m using Windows 7 64 bit on my PC at this time. I would be using Mint if it would boot up after the install. The 32 bit version of Mint installed and booted okay.
Windows 10? Probably not, but 2020 will be the deadline for a decision on that.
