The problem remains of course, like Homer said, if you do much in the way of gaming, or need a lot of other specific applications, windows is still largely the only option.
I don't do as much gaming as I used to, and since this job provides me with a laptop for business use, I can at least consider switching to Linux for this one.

Yeah, I just have a lot of concerns with some of the things I'm hearing about it. I don't trust Microsoft to start with, and it seems like 10 is pretty chock full of security holes and back door reporting tools. Looks like a pretty slick OS on the surface, but it's always what's underneath that worries me...
There are a bunch of articles on disabling that crap.
I know, there's also a bunch of other stuff saying that every time they do an update, those settings are getting reset.
I'm just waiting it out for a bit to see how this all plays out. Latest word is they are going to start setting it as a Recommended Update on win 8.1, so it's going to try to install for anyone that has automatic updates turned on.
Windows 10 is nothing more than glorified spyware.

Heehee... I'm getting far too much enjoyment out of Ray Ferrarro saying "Puemple" over and over again.

multi tasking, configuring windows 10 on one of my PCs. having issues of it connecting to my linux NAS and just got it solved
hmmm... you sure you want to do that?
I'm debating going full linux on my home machines rather than going to win 10.

how about getting paged at 2:30am, be at work for 7:15, finish 2.5 hours late get home and get pages 2 more times during the evening.
Yes, that sucks too. I hate days like that.
But I really, really wanted that pizza! lol
