[QUOTE="AG3S, post: 910379, member: 89325"] I completely agree with you... however, only for the beginners. Linux can be a complete replacement of other OS BUT... it has a learning curve that you should pass. And this learning curve is not something that you open a book or a youtube video or a website and do it. It should be applied based on your personal needs. Sometimes it is not applicable for the cases that you need a specific software which is only developed for Windows. But for the majority of the needs Linux works. I should be clear though... this learning curve might not be easy.. you should learn command line (bash/shell) till some extend and be ready to make your hands dirty in the begining. for me it took about 6 months although I already was familiar with servers and was administrating two FreeBSD servers myself. It is not easy... but if you can do it .. it worth a lot. Something that I do not understand is why some people are talking about finding a free OS! windows now adays is almost Free! you can get a (almost legal) windows 10 licenses off of Amazon for about 10 Dollars... and most the notebooks already have it pre-installed. For me it is not about the price. It is about privacy, security and developement which Windows can not deliver based on my needs. [/QUOTE]
