I have transformed my slow (8 years old) Windows XP notebook into a

Extra bonus: No virus catchers needed for Linux.

Linux Mint was a bit slow for me, so I installed Xubuntu on my
brother's old (+8 year) desktop. I copied his Fx and TB profiles. I
didn't even need to explain it to him how it all worked. :-)

Sure, but it is that way with all toy OS (Linux, Android, iOS, Windows
RT, Palm OS, etc) and applications. Sure they are fun to play with and
easy to use, but they are not built for real productive work. I only use
those OS for toying around and they not much good for anything else.
Although for some, that is all they ever need.


What work can't you do in Linux?
Obviously really haven't really used you Linux for work. Especially
lately.
