Well I don’t know.

I found there is a difference between the way Windows, Apple and Ubuntu work. (going off what I hear, for the Apple part of the comparison)

Windows seems the more intricate, it is all-encompassing but it is also very very robust. So pretty much even though it does a whole lot, it pretty much does it flawlessly (at least until it doesn’t, then it flies offtrack completely - but most of the time it is very good)

Ubuntu is sort of like Mac. (again, going off what I hear for the Mac portion of this comparison)

With the exception it does not provide support.

So please be aware if you use Ubuntu you are pretty much stuck with re-installing if you end up in trouble.

Now that is not all bad. By re-installing every once in a while you end up with a newer version of the Operating System.

But you’ve got to do that re-install yourself.

Ubuntu also doesn’t do everything Windows does.

However for home use, I find it is actually preferable for me.

That is not to say however that holds true for everyone. Might not be true for you.

If your pc is relatively recent, I might suggest to try an install on a new disk.

That is what I have done. I kept my Windows on my original hard drive. I can go back at anytime. But I bought a new harddrive and installed Ubuntu on the new harddrive.

All that said, sometimes things go awry completely, in which case you’re ... well ... in a bind. I would use stronger language if you get my drift. If you’re in a bind, you might end up in a big bind. Just saying.

So don’t depend on me for advice, other than I will repeat I have been largely happy with Ubuntu.

(largely)

There are challenges.

I wonder, it seems WE have worked pretty darn hard to push back. Consider Chick-fil-a and Duck Dynasty. There are a host of others, but I don’t subscribe to being lumped in with the ‘we’ let it go. Not true.

Thanks.

Honestly, I wish that WERE totally true. But it can’t be when 3% of our population, with the help of their supporters are turning this nation upside-down. And Effectively, at that.

It’s impossible to deny that we have let the ship of good judgement, and moral fiber, sail. Of course, this doesn’t mean WE shouldn’t TRY to salvage our nation, I agree...but I’m afraid WE have not worked as hard as many believe, or as hard as WE should be.

I used to love Firefox but I have used it less and less and now not at all because of this. The great thing is there are options and many different browsers. Chrome works well and even though Google is not hugely better I don’t see Google running witch hunts like this against supporters of biologically correct marriage.
