[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 758646"] One should never use Windows unless they require it for Windows-Specific gaming. Otherwise, it's best to just toss it out. I successfully converted everyone in the household from Windows Notebooks to ChromeBooks and it's been a resounding success. Most importantly, I have not a care in the world regarding those devices. Zero concern, ever, for security or stability with them. You can take them to security levels where Windows cannot even hope to achieve. Check out my thread on this; [URL='https://malwaretips.com/threads/configure-your-chromebook-for-ultimate-security.80764/']Tutorial - Configure your Chromebook for Ultimate Security[/URL] I've got a mission with family and friends.. To convert them to Chromebooks as time comes for laptop/notebook upgrades. Windows, regardless of tweaks/software, is just not safe enough for them. Security/Antivirus firms know the proliferation of ChromeOS devices spells the beginning of the end of their industry. By 2020 a full 90% of EDU environments will be ChromeOS by industry estimates, that's billions in lost revenue for security theater firms. Microsoft themselves know this is coming and are attempting to convince EDU purchasers that 'Windows is safe too now!' in a futile marketing campaign destined to fail. G Suite is way too popular now, and free - it's spreading like wildfire. Blackhats are losing entire swaths of vulnerable sheep to exploit. [/QUOTE]
