I have transformed my slow (8 years old) Windows XP notebook into a
speedy Linux Mint one, at no costs, including Libre Office.

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.


Are you sure that you know what's Linux?
