The biggest fear in switching for the majority of people is the “new/unfamiliar” factor that all Window users have. Second is that they want to know that Mint will play all their favorite programs and games, web based or otherwise. Mint has taken care of the unfamiliar problem as it looks and interfaces close to Windows. Current version is 17.3
Visit www.linuxmint.com for various versions to download and try. All Linux Mint Operating Systems are open source and free. Much more stable than Windows and has no NSA snooping back doors built into it. No virus protection required. Wine is a program that will allow Windows based programs to install run in Mint. Mint will read and run most files from Windows and will access FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS file systems external USB drives and thumb drives. 100% compatible. LibreOffice will work seamlessly with Microsux Office files as well.
You can download an ISO image and burn it to a blank DVD disk or make a bootable USB thumb drive. You can boot from the disk or thumb drive and test drive Mint without installing it. You can install as a dual booting system with Windows if you choose. Install time is usually less than a half hr where Windows would take most of a night including it’s updates.
I have been a windows user since Windows 3.1 and finally gave my win7 5 family install disk to the dog for a chew toy a month ago. I will never go back to Microsux. Love my Mint!
