hi. personal experience.  I started using linux about 12 years ago installation 
and configuration are just a bit longer than in windows systems  (but you can 
find a lot of documentation). Linux systems are, by the way, more transparent 
(if you want to know what happens behind the interface), customizable and 
versatile than windows systems. You can run linux on micro computers  (e.g. 
raspberry), very old computers (I have ubuntu on a notebook with 256 mb ram); 
you can use a wider set of data formats (texts, images...)  and so on.  then it 
depends on your needs: if you have particular softwares or hardwares that 
require windows...  However, open source software (LibreOffice, Gimp, 
Blender...) has made impressive progresses in the last years, so that just a 
small number of users can note the difference (provided they don't just trust 
the name or think that higher costs mean higher quality).

yes, but as I say, you are quite expert, my sister had a pc with windows, and to allow her to use linux the only way is to install linux by me :-) :-)

Thank YOU, Mr. Wallen, for your article.
Although I know, this does not belong here, just a word.
I have been trying (STRUGGLING) to move away from MS and get friendly
with Linux for 7-8 years now!
So far with little success. Yet, I still keep trying.
