Windows is a data sucking insecure malware virus, friend. Either you have not played with the Cinnamon desktop interface in Mint or you like the crap like the idiotic ribbon interface and the moronic menu interface in windows 10 which Microshaft insists on cramming down our gullets.

Not Mint 18.3, it is hard to tell the difference between it and Win XP/Win 7 as a desktop. I even took an install and customized all the graphics and icons to win 7 and it is hard to tell the difference to a win 7 user.

I’d say Mint and Ubuntu are both excellent desktop experiences. Mint is very similar to Windows, although all Linux versions are very similar.

If a person can use a Mac, and millions of people do, they can use the many flavors of Linux as well.
