I can't tell you which window was the best XP or 7 but for me it's somewhere between the two. Although I used vista for a long time perfectly fine and people hated that one.

I feel privileged that I got to use these great operating system for so long.

It's what made me good at computers to start with.

Every other Windows distro is okay, since XP. XP ->7 ->10. I'm holding out for 12 because 11 blows, but...Linux looks more attractive every day.

I finally took the plunge and installed Mint about a week ago. It's definitely better.

I partitioned my hard drive so I have both systems available. If everything goes well with Mint for the next few months, I'll just wipe Windows entirely.

If there's nothing specific holding you to Microsoft's ecosystem, you should go for it.

Congrats! Be aware that Windows loves to wipe foreign bootloaders though. If your computer suddenly can't boot Mint anymore but goes right into Windows, that's another way of MS screwing with you.

I have heard that. I'm backing up everything that's important.
