Stanron Tech: So how do I Linux? (61* d) RE: Tech: So how do I Linux? 28 Apr 22

I'll bow to your better knowledge Jon. To be honest I'd go to a supermarket and buy a Linux magazine that had a bootable CD or DVD enclosed and try it. Mint was the first one that worked and that I liked.

Once it was up and running it was like being freed from a tyranny.

A warning to anyone dipping their toe in these waters. Running an operating system from an external drive, DVD or USB, is a lot slower than running it from an installed hard drive. You get to see what it looks like and what it takes to navigate the system, then if you do install it you get a pleasant surprise in how fast it can be.
